the length of a kitchen wall is 24 2/3 feet long a border will be placed along the wall of the kitchen.if the border comes in strips that are each 1 3/4 feet long,how many strips of border are needed?
I wish I could help, but I don't know how to do these type of problems either Xd I hope someone else can help you.
The number of strips needed is :
[24 + 2/3] / [ 1 +3/4] =
[74 / 3] / [7 / 4] =
[ 74 / 3] * [ 4 / 7 ] =
296 / 21 = about 14.0952 strips [ round to 15]
