Question 174502
I want to know how many bricks and cement it would take to build the following brick wall: the bricks are 16 inches by 8 inches, and the wall would measure 6 ft high by 200 ft long.

============================================

6 feet X 200 feet = 1200 feet

How many inches make 1200 feet?

There are 12 inches in 1 foot.

1200 feet X 12 inches per foot = 14400 inches

=============================================

The bricks are 16 inches by 8 inches = 128 inches

Then 14400 divided by 128 inches = 112.5 bricks, which can be rounded off to the nearest unit to be about 113 bricks.
