To determine the number of sheets of plywood needed for a 13 by 13 foot room, we first calculate the area of the room by multiplying the length and width: 13 feet x 13 feet = 169 square feet. A standard sheet of plywood is 4 feet by 8 feet, or 32 square feet. To cover 169 square feet, we would need 169/32 = 5.28 sheets of plywood. Since you cannot purchase a fraction of a sheet, you would need to round up to 6 sheets to ensure complete coverage.
