An area of 18 square feet that is 6 feet long and 3 feet wide. A rug covered 1/3 square foot tiles. How many tiles will the rug cover? Write an equation

The number of tiles the rug will cover is 54 tiles

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have,

Total area covered by the rug = 18 ft²

Size of one tile = 1/3 ft²

Therefore the number of tiles that can fit into the the area is given by;

Total area of the rug ÷ Area of one tile

= 18 ft² ÷ 1/3 ft²

Here we note that we are dividing a number by a fraction which is the same as multiplying the number by the inverse of the fraction as follows

= 18 × 3/1 ft²/ft² = 54 tiles

The number of tiles the rug will cover = 54 tiles.

the answer is a i belaeve atleast thats what my calculator just gfave me
