The pool side is designed to be a 60 ft by 26 ft rectangle, and the deck around the pool is going to be lined with slate tiles that are 1 ft squares. How many tiles are needed? Answer by TimothyLamb(4379) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! assume that a single row of tiles will line the perimeter of the pool:
---
x = total number of tiles needed
---
x = (60 + 2)*2 + (26)*2
(60 + 2)*2 + (26)*2
