Question

Please help i also need an explination

Answer 1

4

Explanation:

Area of the wall = 8 × 16

= 128 ft²

One roll covers an area of:

2 × 20

= 40 ft²

She needs:

128/40 = 3.2 rolls

Since complete rolls are to be bought, she needs to buy 4 rolls

Answer 2

4 rolls

Explanation:

First we need to find the area of the wall

A = l*w

= 8*16 = 128

Then we find the area that a roll of wallpaper will cover

A=2*20=40

Divide

128/40 =3.2

We must round up since we cannot buy part of a roll

We need 4 rolls
