How many 100mm blocks

[pete26671]

Hi ppl can anyone help . Because I'm absolutely useless at maths I can't work out how many blocks I need . I am rebuilding our kitchen from wood frame to block but am having trouble trying to calculate the overall size it is 12 ft long by 8 ft high and is 8 ft wide and luckily has only 3 walls altogether what I want help with is how many blocks I need

Depends how big your windows/doors are

3.65 x 2.4 = 8.76m2 say 9m2

2.4 x 2.4 = 5.76 m2 say 6m2

So add up how many walls you have of each, and then x by 10

Then deduct any door (20 blocks) and window (15 blocks) for a 4'x4' (1.2x1.2m)

Sorry Pete, must ask the question. Which school did you go to? I worked this out in my head in 30 seconds (as Woody probably did)

Downright feckin rude, presumtuous and totally uncalled for.

I worked with a guy who admitted being numerically dyslexic but was talented at many other things. Ho hum.

I personally find maths easy and like numbers.

Easy for us innit pal.

I make no excuses for being unable to use maths and as you say it was rude but that is all I expect from bullies
