There are 100 tiles that were purchased to raise money for a new playground. The tiles will be laid along a walkway. Each tile is 4.75 inches wide. If the tiles are going to all be lined next to each other, how many inches long will they cover along the walkway? A. 0.475 inch B. 47.5 inches C. 475 inches D. 4,750 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given

the number of tiles is 100 in total

the dimension of the tiles is 4.75 inches wide

Step two:

Required

We want to find the length that 100 tiles will cover

Hence the length will be 4.75*100

=475inches

Therefore the option C is correct

ratios represent a pattern or relationship that can be scaled.

equivalent ratios are pairs of ratios that represent the same relationship between quantities, and can be generated by multiplying or dividing both quantities in the ratio by the same factor.

in this lesson, students will use double number lines and ratio reasoning to solve ratio problems. by partitioning double number lines into proportionate intervals, students will build an understanding of equivalent ratio relationships as those that are generated by multiplying or dividing two related quantities by the same number. this lesson will build upon students' prior understanding of multiplicative comparisons, number line reasoning and equivalent fractions (while highlighting the difference between equivalent fractions and equivalent ratios); and will build toward future work in this unit on building ratio tables, and work in future grades in proportionality, scaling, and expressing and graphing linear functions.
