Question

Your bedroom wall is 150 inches wide. You want to hang two posters, each 27 inches across, with an equal space between each poster and the wall edges.

How many inches of space should you leave between the wall edge and each poster?

Answer 1

32

Explanation:

let the space be x

x + 27 + x + 27 + x = 150

3x + 54 = 150

3x = 96

x= 32
