The walkaway is 54 × 1.5

The available tiles is 1.5 × 1.5

Required tiles will be
54/1.5
= 540/15
= 36

So 36 tiles will be required to complete the walkway.

A box contains 12 such tiles
hence 36/12 boxes will be required
= 36/12
= 3

Hence 3 boxes containing 36 tiles will be required to complete the walkway
