Question

A tile has a shape of a parallelogram whose base is 24cm and the corresponding height is 10cm.How many
such tiles are required to cover the floor of area 1080 m2

Answer 1

Answer:

45000 tiles are needed

Step-by-step explanation:

First step is to find the area of 1 tile:

Base = 24cm

Height = 10cm

∴ B * H = Area

24 * 10 = 240cm²

Next step is to find how many tiles to cover the floor =

10800000 / 240

( ∵ 1m² = 10000 cm²)

= 45000

∴45000 tiles are needed

Answer 2

Answer:

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 =

(1080×10000)/240

=45000
