Answer 1

If the dimensions of the floor are 15+1/2 feet by 12 feet and the length of 1 square tile be 1/2 foot, then the number of tiles that is used to cover the floor is 744.

Given that the dimensions of the floor are 15+1/2 feet by 12 feet and the length of 1 square tile be 1/2 foot.

We required to find the number of tiles that can be used to cover the floor.

Firstly we need to find the area of the rectangular floor.

length of rectangular floor=15+1/2=31/2 feet

Breadth of rectangular floor=12 feet

Area=Length*Breadth

Area=31/2 *12

Area=186 $feet^{2}$

Side of 1 square tile=1/2 foot

Area of 1 square tile=1/2 *1/2

=1/4 $foot^{2}$

=1/4 $feet^{2}$

Number of tiles=Area of rectangular floor/Area of 1 tile

=186/1/4

=186*4

=744 tiles

Hence if the dimensions of the floor are 15+1/2 feet by 12 feet and the length of 1 square tile be 1/2 foot, then the number of tiles that is used to cover the floor is 744.
