Problema Solution
Each hospital bed and its accessories use 96 ft2 of floor space. How many beds can be placed in a ward 24 ft by 36 ft?
Answer provided by our tutors
The area of the ward is:
A = 24*36
A = 864 ft^2
Let 'x' represent the number of beds.
96x < = 864 divide both sides by 96
x <= 864/96
x <= 9
The 9 beds at most can be placed in the ward.
