Question 857590: Driveway pavers are 4 inches by 8 inches. If your driveway is 12224 square inches, how many pavers do you need for your driveway?

Answer by JulietG(1812) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
If the pavers are 4" * 8", then they have a surface area of 32".
Your driveway is 12,224"
Divide
12,224 / 32 = 382
.
However, in real life, you would want to add 10% for waste or defect, plus you would want to stagger the pavers.
