Question

Abigail is putting tiles in a table top. She needs 48 tiles for each of the 8 rows. Each of the rows will have 6 white tiles. The rest of the tiles will be purple. How many purple tiles will she need?

Answer 1

abigale will need 336 purple tiles

Answer 2

336 purple tiles

Explanation:

Let the number of tiles for each row be = 48 tiles

The number of rows = 8 rows

number of white tiles per row = 6 tiles

total number of white tiles =
`8 * 6`

= 48 tiles

the total number of tiles =
`48* 8 = 384`

number of purple tiles =
`384 - 48\\= 336 tiles`
