How many 30x30 cm tiles do you need for a 15 ft x 15 ft room?

You will need 233 30x30cm tiles to cover the room.


If the ratio between the radii of two spheres is 23 then what is the ratio of their volumes?

Volume of a sphere of radius r: V = 4pi/3 x r3 If the ratio of the radii of two spheres is 23,then the ratio of their volumes will be 233 = 1,2167


How big is 2100 square feet in yards?

There are 9 square feet in 1 square yard. There are 233 square yards in 2100 square feet, with a remainder of 3 square feet.


What is the minimum number of square marbles required to tile a floor of length 5 meters 78 cm and width 3 meters 74 cm?

5.78 meters x 3.28084 feet per meter = 18.96 feet 3.74 meters x 3.28084 feet per meter = 12.27 feet I'd probably ignore the extra .02 feet on the width (= 1/4 inch) and call it 12.25 feet. Since you can theoretically get four three-inch-wide pieces (.25 ft = 3 in.) from each square foot tile, you'd need at the absolute minimum: 19 x 12 ft 3 in. = 233 one foot squares of tile However, you should assume that some of the tiles will get broken during cutting or installation, so I suggest you buy a few more, especially if you're buying from a place that allows returns. I'd get 240


How is pi calculated?

For General PurposesPi (3.1416) can be approximated by the ratio 22/7. The ancient mathematicians similarly used 25/8 (Babylonia), 256/81 (Egypt), or 339/108 (India), each of which is within .02, better than most measurable tolerances of the period.Calculating πThe ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter is the same for every circle, and that number is what we call π. In theory, if you take something perfectly round, measure the distance around it, then divide by its width, you could calculate π. However, most calculations of π are done using infinite series that depend on something called Machin-like formulas.For example, according to an article on Wolfram's Mathworld, one such formula is: 1/4pi=183cot^(-1)(239)+32cot^(-1)(1023)-68cot^(-1)(5832)+12cot^(-1)(110443)-12cot^(-1)(4841182)-100cot^(-1)(6826318).It is true that Pi (3.14..) is a ratio of circumference length to diameter length of any perfect circle. However, that statement doesn't explain how the value 3.14.. was first determined by Archimedes, so perhaps this explanation will be useful :The basis for determining the ratio that is Pi (3.14..) rests on Archimedes' term "radian". Archimedes determined that at 57.296 degrees of arc, the "arc length" is equal to the "radius length" that is scribing the arc. Archimedes gave the term "radian" to this angle.Simply dividing the radian value (57.296 degrees) into the circle value (360 degrees) produces ratio 6.28.. - Since the arc length at radian equals radius length, then 6.28.. times the radius length equals the circumference length.To change the "radius/circumference" ratio to a "diameter/circumference" ratio, the ratio is simply halved to 3.14.., because the diameter is twice the radius.It is really that simple. The ratio 3.14.. was given the mathematical language term of Pi by Archimedes.The all around best formula for calculating pi involves every other number in the Fibonacci sequence. The Fibonacci sequence is a recursive alliteration. It starts out 1 1 2 3 5 8 13 21 34 55 89 144 233 377. Each term is the sum of the two preceding terms.The formula is pi/4 = arc1/2 - arc1/5 + arc1/13 - arc1/34 + arc1/89 - arc1/233... "arc" here is abbreviated for the arc tangent of the number that it is attached to. The formula for calculating the arc tangent of numbers less than one is: arc't' = t^1/1 - t^3/3 + t^5/5 - t^7/7 + t^9/9 - t^11/11...
