Answer:
100 tiles
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of classroom = length × width = 20 × 30 = 600 ft2
Before we get the area of each tile, convert the dimensions to feet as already stated
Since 1 foot = 12 inches, 36 inches = 3 feet and 24 inches = 2 feet
Area of each tile = length × width = 2 × 3 = 6 ft2 If one tile takes 6 ft2, it takes 100 tiles to cover 600 ft2 (6 × 100 = 600)
