Application Problem, May 12 by Tracy Holland https://padlet.com/tracyholland1/olbg3ndtzz3ivd73 We had some good math yesterday, but quite a bit of confusion. Today, spend time reviewing my work from yesterday, and then try some new thinking on a similar problem today. en-us 2020-05-12 11:18:04 UTC 2024-11-28 11:43:37 UTC hello@padlet.com Here is how I figured out the tiles tracyholland1 https://padlet.com/tracyholland1/olbg3ndtzz3ivd73/wish/567233139 Most of you had the right thinking on this and came to the same conclusion - 48 tiles. ]]> 2020-05-12 11:19:32 UTC https://padlet.com/tracyholland1/olbg3ndtzz3ivd73/wish/567233139 How much the tiles cost is where you ran into trouble... Well done Aeden on figuring out the actual cost. tracyholland1 https://padlet.com/tracyholland1/olbg3ndtzz3ivd73/wish/567235591 2020-05-12 11:21:01 UTC https://padlet.com/tracyholland1/olbg3ndtzz3ivd73/wish/567235591 Aeden tracyholland1 https://padlet.com/tracyholland1/olbg3ndtzz3ivd73/wish/567241475 Number of Tiles=LxW
 6 1/2ft x7 1/3ft=47 2/3ft squared
Tile stores won’t sell 2/3 of a tile, so you need to round up to 48 tiles.
Number of tiles x cost= total cost for tiles.
48x3 1/4=$156.00 total cost for tiles.]]> 2020-05-12 11:24:28 UTC https://padlet.com/tracyholland1/olbg3ndtzz3ivd73/wish/567241475 Today's Problem tracyholland1 https://padlet.com/tracyholland1/olbg3ndtzz3ivd73/wish/567267369 2020-05-12 11:39:48 UTC https://padlet.com/tracyholland1/olbg3ndtzz3ivd73/wish/567267369 Answer s080711 https://padlet.com/tracyholland1/olbg3ndtzz3ivd73/wish/567500051 I think that the answer is 669.331$ because I found that there is 280.055 square ft. of carpet and then that times 2.39$=669.331]]> 2020-05-12 13:25:02 UTC https://padlet.com/tracyholland1/olbg3ndtzz3ivd73/wish/567500051 Answer s080853 https://padlet.com/tracyholland1/olbg3ndtzz3ivd73/wish/567759819 1. 290 11/71 square ft of carpet. I found that out by multiplying both of the and then adding them up and got 290 11/71. 
2. Stores won't sell 11/71 of a tile so you have to round down to 290 and that times $2.39=693.10]]> 2020-05-12 14:51:00 UTC https://padlet.com/tracyholland1/olbg3ndtzz3ivd73/wish/567759819 Answer s080469 https://padlet.com/tracyholland1/olbg3ndtzz3ivd73/wish/567993729 I think that the Answer is 669.331$ because There would be 280.055 Square feet of carpet and multiply that by 2.39$ you would get 669.331]]> 2020-05-12 16:07:43 UTC https://padlet.com/tracyholland1/olbg3ndtzz3ivd73/wish/567993729 Answers s080627 https://padlet.com/tracyholland1/olbg3ndtzz3ivd73/wish/568068703 I think that the answer is $669.331. I think this because it would be 280.005 ft. and that times $2.39 would be 669.331]]> 2020-05-12 16:33:37 UTC https://padlet.com/tracyholland1/olbg3ndtzz3ivd73/wish/568068703 aeden s077750 https://padlet.com/tracyholland1/olbg3ndtzz3ivd73/wish/568499404 First, I did (12 1/3x15)+(10 1/3x10 1/4)=290 11/12 ft2. Then I had to round up to 291 because a store won"t sell you half a product. So then 291x$2.39=$695.49]]> 2020-05-12 19:28:15 UTC https://padlet.com/tracyholland1/olbg3ndtzz3ivd73/wish/568499404
