A rectangular tile has a decorative pattern of 3 equal-sized squares, each of which is divided into 2 same-sized triangles. If Marnie uses 36 of these tiles on the wall behind her kitchen stoves, how many triangles are displayed?

Respuesta :

72 triangles will be displayed I believe....

All you do is multiply 2 times 36 and you get 72. Because there are 2 triangles in one square, so 2*36.

Hope this Helps!
Ok, so there are 36 rectangle tiles which have three squares in each one that has two triangles in each so... 36 x 3 = 108
=============================================================
so there are 108 squares, now you multiply by 2 to get the triangles, which is 108 x 2 = 216 :)

Thats your answer! hope i helped :)
