Question

charlie had a circular patio with a radius of 6 feet. the radius is 12 bricks in length. how many bricks would be in the diameter of the patio?

Answer 1

24 Bricks.

Explanation:

We know the radius is 6 feet and that the diameter is twice that.

We also know the radius is 12 'bricks' in length.

If we divide both numbers by 12, we get that 1 'brick' is half a foot.

Since that's the radius and we want the diameter, we multiply the radius by 2 to get the diameter.

This results in 12 feet, or 24 'bricks'.
