If you are estimating brick costs you will want to do a couple of things. Decide the size of the brick you will be using, the area that you will be covering and the cost of the bricks. If you know these things it can make this process a little easier. To decide the amount of bricks you will need you will take the size of the area and divide it by the size of the brick. So, if the area you are
. doing is 10 feet long and one brick thick you will take the size of the brick divided into the 10 feet. If the brick you are using is 6 inches long and you will be putting the brick long ways then your equation would look like this: 10 feet divided by 6 inches equals 20 bricks.
