In my dining room, I have a triangular table which has sides of 62, 37, and 24 inches. I also have napkins which measure 6 inches square. How many napkins will it take to completely cover the table ?
or do they have to stay as they are?
You can make them into sailboats if you like. ;)Quote:

can i just do that and someone else can figure it out then? :P
what i was trying to say was could you unfold one napkin to increase its area 2 or even 4 times?
:D Certainly. I'm not being sarcastic, by the way, it was more of a hint than anything. For example, you can turn the napkins back into pulp if you like. :)Quote:
