Nick has to build a brick wall. each row of the wall requires 62 bricks. there are 10 rows in the wall. how many bricks will nick require to build the wall? a. 102 × 6 b. 106 c. 610 d. 10 × 62

We know that each row would require 62 bricks, and considering that the wall will have multiple rows, we will be multiplying 62 by the number of rows. Since the wall has 10 rows, Nick has to use the 62 bricks 10 times (since 1 row requires 62 bricks, he would have to build that 1 row 10 times.)

If we think about the operation of multiplication, we can write “62 ten times” as 62 x 10 (or, when calculated, 620 bricks).
