Question

A flooring tile has a shape of parallelogram whose base is 18 cm and the corresponding height is 6 cm. How many tiles are required to cover a floor of area 540 m^2

Answer 1

Answer:

50,000 tiles required to cover a floor of area 540 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

Here given that,

Base of parallelogram is 18 cm = 0.18 m

Height of parallelogram is 6 cm = 0.06 m

Now,

Area of parallelogram = 0.18 x 0.06 = 0.0108 m²

Let x shape of parallelogram tiles required for flooring

Then,

x . [Area of parallelogram] = 540 m²

x . [0.0108 m²] = 540 m²

x = 540/0.0108

x = 50,000
