mattress size

[duh]

:-? I am not a student, sadly I'm a 10th grade drop out (in 1970), stay in school kids it does make a difference!!
I am shipping a mattress via UPS. I need to wrap it in bubble wrap to protect it. The dimensions of the mattress are 74" long, 54" wide, 10" thick. Which of these rolls of bubble wrap will completely cover the mattress, 12"x100', 12"x150', 12"x175', 12"x200', 12"x220', 12"x350' .

area of the mattress = 2 *(74*54 + 54*10 + 10*74) = 10552 sq.in

minimum length reqd. for bubble wrap = 10552/12 = 879.33 = 73.28'

But that may be way too small in practical world. In practice, you'll have overlap of wraps. It will also depend on method of wrapping - continuous or cut-and tape. That becomes a different ball game.

You mean "different cricket game"?

No ... No... now it is summer ... now it is soccer - 90 minutes (+ injury time) and finished - no commercials, no "beer brake" - nothing.
