Question

You want to place stone pavers around the edge of your concrete patio. The patio is 12 ft wide by 14 ft long and each stone paver is 14 inches long . How many stone pavers will you need to go around the patio (not counting the side against the house which is 14 ft long)? (round to the nearest whole number )

Answer 1

33 stone pavers are needed to go around the patio with dimension of 12 ft wide by 14 ft long

What is an equation?

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more variables and numbers.

12 inch = 1 ft

Total perimeter of patio not counting the side against the house = 12 + 12 + 14 = 38 feet

38 feet = 38 feet * 12 inch per feet = 456 in

Number of stone pavers needed = 456 in / 14 in = 32.57 ≅ 33

33 stone pavers are needed to go around the patio with dimension of 12 ft wide by 14 ft long
