A homeowner is deciding on the size of tiles to use to fully tile a rectangular wall in her bathroom that is 80 inches by 40 inches. The tiles are squares and

agree with each statement about the tiles. Explain your reasoning.
a. Regardless of the size she chooses, she will need the same number of
tiles.2:
n
b. Regardless of the size she chooses, the area of the wall that is being tiled
is the same. The area of the wall must be the same as the area of the tiles irrespective of the
measure of tiles
c. She will need two 2-inch tiles to cover the same area as one 4-inch tile.
d. She will need four 4-inch tiles to cover the same area as one 8-inch tile.
Area of one 8-inches = 4 *area of one 4-inch tiles 64 = 4*16 64 = 64
e. If she chooses the 8-inch tiles, she will need a quarter as many tiles as
2012
she would with 2-inch tiles.
