Answer 1

Total approximately 16 boxes of flooring will be needed in Stanley's living room.

Explanation:

Here the given question is incomplete.

Stanley is having wood flooring installed in his living room. The installer has used 10 1/2 boxes of flooring on 2/3 of the room. How many total boxes of flooring will be needed for Stanley's living room?

The number of boxes used in the two third of room =
`10 ((1)/(2) ) = 10.5` boxes

So,
`((2)/(3) )` room = 10. 5 boxes

So, 1 room =
`10.5 * ((3)/(2) ) = 15.75 \approx 16`

So, total approximately 16 boxes of flooring will be needed in Stanley's living room.
