Quote: HOW MANY .745" SQUARES CAN BE CUT FROM 16"X14.25" SHEET
this could in general be a very difficult question as you can come up with patterns of squares to cover the sheet in more efficient ways than just the obvious one.
The theoretical maximum is going to be the area of the big sheet divided by the area of a little square which is
16 * 14.25 / (0.745)
2 =
16 * 14.25 / (0.745)^2
i.e. 410 squares but you might not be able to find a pattern of squares that matches this
if you just use the obvious pattern and do as well as you can you get
(16/0.745) * (14.25/0.745)
and you see that just using the obvious pattern in this case gets you as many squares as you can theoretically get.
So you can get 410 squares.
