The wall is 12 feet long. They are placing studs every 18 inches. If there are studs on each end of the wall, how many studs will they place?


Respuesta :

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

1 feet is 12 inches, so 12 feet is 12 * 12 = 144 inches.

If studs are placed 18 inches apart, in 144 inches, there will be:

[tex]\frac{144}{18}=8[/tex]

But remember, there is a stud at the very beginning (at 0 feet).

So in total there are going to be 9 studs
