How many 4-inch by 8-inch bricks are needed to build a walk 6 feet wide and 24 feet long?
While I'm in a teaching role...
What is the area of the walk? (hint: 24x6)
What is the area of a brick? (hint:convert the inches to feet)
Divide the first number by the second number and that's how many bricks...
