A tile has the shape of a parallelogram whose base is 35 cm and the corresponding height is 10 cm.How many tiles are required to cover a floor of area 84000 cm².
Answers
Explanation:
Base of the tile = 35cm
Corresponding height = 10cm
Area of the tile (parallelogram) = b*h
= 35 (10) = 350 sq cm
Area of the floor = 84000 sq cm
No of tiles required = 84000/350
= 8400/35
= 240
No of tiles required to cover a floor = 240
• Base of Tile = 35cm
• Shape of Tile = parallelogram
• Area of floor = 84000cm²
• Height of tile = 10cm
• Number of tiles required to cover a floor of area 84000cm².
Formula to be used :-
• Area of parallelogram = Base × Height
At first, we need to find the area of 1 tile
Area of 1 tile
= Base × Height
= 35 × 10
= 350 cm²
Given that,
Area of floor is = 84000cm²
_________________________________________________
Hence,
Number of tiles required to cover floor
= Area of floor/Area of 1 tile
= 84000/350
= 240
Therefore ,number of tiles required to cover a floor of area 84000cm² is = 240
