Answer:
36cm
Step-by-step explanation:
For side of the square to be the largest, such that it cover all the floor, it must be the greatest possible factor of both the sides of the rectangle. So, we need to calculate the highest common factor ( hcf ) of the sides of the rectangle.
and we know that,
hcf (252cm , 216cm) = 36 cm
So the length of the largest possible square tile to cover the floor = 36cm
