Question

6. The number of square tiles of side 50 cm which can be paved on a rectangular floor of 2 m x 1.5 m is​

Answer 1

Answer:

Area of the rectangular floor = 2 * 1.5 = 3$m^2$

Suppose there are n square tiles fitted on this rectangular floor.

Then,

Area of n square tiles = area of rectangular floor

Area of one square tile = 50*50 = 2500$cm^2$ = 0.25$m^2$

Area of n square tiles = (n*0.25) $m^2$

So,

n*0.25 = 3

n = 3/0.25

n = 12

The number of square tiles of side 50 cm which can paved on given rectangular floor is 12.
