Dorothy is making a quilt. She has 324 squares that are 8 inches wide and 8 inches long. She wants her quilt to be a square. What will the length of the quilt be once it is completed?

If it's 12 inches to a foot I thought the answer should be 54 feet but that's not one of the choices so I don't know sorry :P I'm british and we don't use feet or inches :D

Are you checking that all of the numbers are entered in correctly? It's a long list. That's what I did wrong.

When you enter it into here: [Only registered and activated users can see links]
The mean is 85.47059

There are 7 scores under that number, which is about 42%

Sari
04-23-2012, 03:31 PM
You're counting the 85 as below that?
I entered the numbers right.

Ana
04-23-2012, 03:33 PM
Yeah. I also checked not counting 85, but 35% isn't on the list.

I don't like that problem -__-
I'd round it down to 85 and 85 isn't under 85. And 41% isn't on the list either. I mean it's close to 42, but you'd still round down to 41. :mad:
