Domino says to me, “I wonder if I have enough plywood to board up the windows if we get a hurricane this year.” I love tasks like this: helping someone make use of what they have. You can help me figure it out.
The windows measure:
48 x 48 front bedroom
48 x 48 back bedroom
36 x 36 kitchen window
24 x 60 east of chimney
24 x 60 west of chimney
72 x 78 sliding glass doors
The T-111 wood (siding) she has on hand measures:
19 x 62
30 x 39
27 x 48
39 x 47
28 x 48
17 x 96
17 x 96
And she has two pieces of plywood that measure:
19 x 49
32 x 48
Does she have enough plywood to cover her windows? She simply screws the boards into the wall frame since hers is a frame house.
THE ANSWER I CAME UP WITH:
The windows measure:
36 x 36 kitchen window use (a) below
24 x 60 east of chimney use (b)
24 x 60 west of chimney use (c)
48 x 48 front bedroom use (d1 and d2)
48 x 48 back bedroom use (e)
72 x 78 sliding glass doors Now she just needs two sheets of plywood for this door.
The T-111 wood (siding) she has on hand measures:
a. 30 x 39 use this one for the kitchen window
b. 17 x 96 use east of chimney
c. 17 x 96 use west of chimney
d1. 27 x 48 half of front bedroom window
d2. 28 x 48 other half of front bdrm window
e. 39 x 47 back bedroom window
