Jasmine wants to build a 2 5/6 meter long garden path with square stones that measure 1/4 meter on each side. There will no spaces between between the stones. How many stones will be needed to complete the garden path?
2 \(\frac{5}{6}\) = \(\frac{17}{6}\) find common denominator, which is 12, so \(\frac{17}{6}\) = \(\frac{34}{12}\) , and \(\frac{1}{4}\) = \(\frac{3}{12}\) , so 3 goes into 34 12 times rounded up to the nearest integer, so the answer is 12
