Answer
288 pots
Work Step by Step
Convert the table measurements to inches.
$W=4ft\times \frac{12in}{1 ft}=48 in$
$L=8ft\times \frac{12in}{1 ft}=96 in$
Divide by 4 inches to determine how many pots can fit on the table.
$48 in \div 4 \frac{in}{pot}=12 pots$
$96 in \div 4 \frac{in}{pot}=24 pots$
12 rows of 24 pots can be placed on the table. Multiply to find the total number of pots.
$12\times24=288\ pots$
