How many bricks would you need if the area of a patio is 24 square feet and one brick is 4 x 8?

Hello Questioner, The total would be 108 assuming that no spaces between bricks is catered for. It is assumed that the brick dimension is in inches. Obviously there will be some mortar between bricks but on the whole I would stick to the figure, mainly to allow for breakages etc. The calculation was as follows: One brick is 32/144 square feet, therfore 24 square feet will require 24 divided by 32/144 which equals 108. The 144 is derived from the number of square inches in a square foot. It does not matter how the 24 square feet is made up. Could be 2x12, 3x8, or 4x6 it would still require the same number of bricks. Best regards. JF
