Question

A Mason is tilling the floor of a room with blue square tiles each side of the tile is 10 CM. The floor is 450 CM in length and 250 CM in width. How many tiles will tha Mason need​

Answer 1

Answer:

As a backup: Tiles can break when laying or cutting (if needed) and hence cannot be used as they would be aesthetically unpleasing. Hence to cover this wastage you would need more.

Answer 2

Answer:

Area of the tile=10 cm×10 cm=100 sq.cm

Area of the floor=450 cm×250 cm=112500 sq.cm

No.Of tiles required=112500 sq.cm÷100 sq.cm=1125 tiles

So,the answer is 1125 tiles.
