Find out the how many tiles are in each section .

To prove

Let us assume that the number of tiles are in section are be x.

As given

A mosaic at the art museum is divided into 6 sections that each contain about the same number of tiles.

There are 2,889 tiles total in the mosiac .

Than the equation becomes

x = 481.5

Therefore the total number of tiles in each sections are 481.5 .
