Question

Q1 A flooring tile has the shape of a llgm
whose base is 24 cm and the corresponding
height is 10 cm. How many tiles are required
to cover a floor of area 1080m^2.with diagram
​

Answer 1

Given :-

Base of the flooring tile = 24 cm

Height of the flooring tile = 10 cm

Area of the floor = 1080 m²

To Find :-

Number of tiles required to cover the floor.

Solution :-

We know that,

• b = Base
• h = Height
• a = Area

By the formula,

Area of flooring tile = Base × Altitude

Given that,

Base of flooring tile = 24 cm = 0.24 m

Corresponding height of a flooring tile = 10 cm = 0.10 m

Substituting their values,

= 0.24 × 0.10

= 0.024

Therefore, area of flooring tile is 0.024 m².

Number of tiles required to cover the floor = Area of floor/Area of one tile

Number of tiles required = 1080/0.024

Tiles required = 45000 tiles

Therefore, 45000 tiles are required to cover the floor.
