Exercise 59 Page 42

Find the ratio between the area of the whole quilt and a quilt square.

350

Practice makes perfect

We have quilt squares that measure 8 inches on each side, and we want to make 140-inch by 160-inch quilt with the square quilts.

The ratio between the area of the whole quilt and a quilt square will give us the number of square quilts needed. Area of whole quilt/Area of a quilt square = 160* 140/8* 8 Let's simplify it.

160* 140/8* 8
