Each side of a square patio is 10.5 feet. The patio is made up of 1.5 foot by 1.5-foot square stones. What is the number of stones in the patio? Look at the solution below. Does it include all the steps needed to solve the problem? Explain

10.5 x 10.5 = 110.25 PLZ SOLVE THE PROBLEM
110.25 ÷ 1.5 = 73.5

you need to include all the steps

Step-by-step explanation:

The steps your teacher gave you are on the right track, but not quite 100% correct.

The first line has us find the area of the entire patio. That area being 110.25 square feet.

The next step is to find the area of each stone. That would be 1.5 x 1.5 = 2.25 square feet.

Therefore, the patio is made up of 110.25 ÷ 2.25 = 49 tiles

When arranged into a square, we'll have a 7 by 7 square set of stone tiles. Notice how 7 x 7 = 49.
