Question

A flooring tile has the shape os a parallelogram whose base is24cm and the corresponding height is 10cm . how many such tiles are required to cover a floor of area 1080m²?(if required you can split the tiles in whatever way you want to fill up the corners).​

Answer 1

Given,

l=24cm (of a tile)

b=10cm (of a tile )

Area of a tile (in parallelogram shape) =l×bcm

2

=24×10

=240cm

2

Total floor area =1080m

2

10000cm

2

= 1m

2

Required number of tiles to cover the floor area =

240

1080×10000

=45000
