Question 197158: A stack of bricks is 4 1/2 feet high. If each brick has a height of 2 1/4 inches, how many rows of bricks are there? Answer by edjones(8007) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 4 1/2=9/2
9/2 * 12=54" change feet to inches
2 1/4=9/4"
54 / 9/4 divide the height of one brick into the stack to find how many rows.
=54 * 4/9
=24 rows
