For his art project, Julian wanted to make a pixel art by completely covering the 2-feet-by-3-feet poster board with colored stickers that measure 2-inches-by-2-inches without any overlap.How many stickers would Julian need?
Each sticker is 2x2 = 4 in2
The poster is 2 FEET x 3 FEET 1 foot = 12 inches
2 * 12 x 3 * 12 = 864 in2
864 / 4 = 216 stickers needed
Each sticker is 2x2 = 4 in2
The poster is 2 FEET x 3 FEET 1 foot = 12 inches
2 * 12 x 3 * 12 = 864 in2
864 / 4 = 216 stickers needed
This problem requires a conversion from feet to inches. The area of the poster board is 6 feet squared, which is same as 6*12*12 inches squared or 864 inches squared. One sticker is 4 inches squared. So Julian needs 864/4=216 stickers.
