Kayla is going to tile a 6 foot by 9 foot rectangular section of her bathroom wall with square tiles that measure 3 inches tall and 3 inches wide. How many tiles will she need for her project?

864 tiles

Step-by-step explanation:

Rather than calculating the whole area of bathroom and area of one tile, It is quicker and easier to determine how many rows of tiles that will be needed.

Note that 1 feet = 12 inches

Each tile measures 3 inches on each side.

Length: 9 feet = 9 × 12 = 108 inches

Therefore, 108/3 = 36 tiles will fit along the length.

Width: 6 feet = 6 × 12 = 72 inches. Therefore, 72/3 = 24 tiles will fit along the width.

So, (36 × 24) = 864 tiles will be needed.

1/3 + 1/5 = 8/15.
