HELP ME FIGURE. DOES SHE HAVE ENOUGH?<\/p><\/div>\n

Domino<\/a>\u00a0says to me, “I wonder if I have enough plywood to board up the windows if we get a hurricane this year.” \u00a0I love tasks like this: helping someone make use of what they have. \u00a0You can help me figure it out.<\/p>\n

The windows measure:<\/span>
\n48 x 48 front bedroom
\n48 x 48 back bedroom
\n36 x 36 kitchen window
\n24 x 60 east of chimney
\n24 x 60 west of chimney
\n72 x 78 sliding glass doors<\/p>\n

The T-111 wood (siding) she has on hand measures:
\n19 x 62<\/span><\/span>
\n30 x 39<\/span><\/span>
\n27 x 48
\n39 x 47
\n28 x 48
\n17 x 96
\n17 x 96<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

And she has two pieces of plywood that measure:<\/span>
\n\u00a019 x 49
\n32 x 48\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Does she have enough plywood to cover her windows? \u00a0She simply screws the boards into the wall frame since hers is a frame house.<\/p>\n

THE ANSWER I CAME UP WITH:<\/span><\/p>\n

The windows measure:
\n36 x 36 kitchen window use (a) below
\n24 x 60 east of chimney use (b)
\n24 x 60 west of chimney use (c)
\n48 x 48 front bedroom use (d1 and d2)
\n48 x 48 back bedroom use (e)<\/p>\n

72 x 78 sliding glass doors Now she just needs two sheets of plywood for this door.<\/span><\/p>\n

The T-111 wood (siding) she has on hand measures:
\na. 30 x 39 use this one for the kitchen window
\nb. 17 x 96 use east of chimney
\nc. 17 x 96 use west of chimney
\nd1. 27 x 48 half of front bedroom window
\nd2. 28 x 48 other half of front bdrm window
\ne. 39 x 47 back bedroom window<\/p>\n
