Question

Kasi is building a patio. he has 136 bricks. he wants the patio to have 8 rows, each with the same number of bricks. how many bricks will kasi put in each row?

Answer 1

Simply divide 136 bricks by 8 rows to find how many go in each row:

136 bricks / 8 rows = 17 bricks per row

Answer 2

Number of bricks per row = 17

Explanation:

Total number of bricks available = 136

Total number of rows = 8

We need to find how many bricks will kasi put in each row

We have

Total number of bricks available = Total number of rows x number of bricks per row

136 = 8 x Number of bricks per row

`\texttt{Number of bricks per row = }(136)/(8)=17`

Number of bricks per row = 17
