Gerard ran out of tile for his patio. The width of the remaining area is 2 and two ninths feet. The length of the remaining area is 7 feet. How much does Gerard have left over to tile. I don't get it my brain is not working please help me
To figure this out, you have to use the formula for area. A=l×w where l is the length, and w is the width.
l = 2 2/9 ft.
w = 7 ft.
First, we should put 2 2/9 into decimal form, as it'll make it easier to
multiply.
2/9 = 0.22
So, 2 2/9 = 2.22
A = l × w
A = 2.22 × 7
A = 15.54
The area Gerard has left over to tile is 15.54 square feet.
Gerard has left 15.33 square feet area to tile.
The width of the remaining area = \(2\frac{2}{9}\) feet
The width of the remaining area =\(\frac{20}{9}\) feet
The length of the remaining area = 7 feet
The area of a rectangle is the product of length to width.
So, the remaining area = \(\frac{20}{9} *7\)
The remaining area = \(\frac{140}{9}\) square feet
The remaining area = 15.33 square feet
So, Gerard has left to tile = 15.33 square feet
Thus, Gerard has left 15.33 square feet area to tile.
