The size of the floor is not given. From online sources, it's 17ft x 8ft.
Answer:
$65.34
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of the entire floor = 17 × 8 = 136 ft²
Now we are told that half of the entire floor tiles will be dark brown tiles while the other half will be light brown tiles.
Thus;
Area of dark brown tiles = 136/2 = 66 ft²
Area of light brown tiles = 136/2 = 66 ft²
Now, we are told that a piece of both colour of the tiles are 1 ft on each side, which means that:
area of 1 piece of tile = 1 × 1 = 1ft²
Thus,
Number of dark brown tiles = 66/1 = 66 tiles
Number of light brown tiles = 66/1 = 66 tiles
Now, cost of each dark brown tile is given as $0.50
Thus,total cost of dark brown tiles = 66 × 0.5 = $33
Cost of each light brown tile is given as $0.49
Thus,total cost of light brown tiles = 66 × 0.49 = $32.34
Thus, total cost of all floor tiles = $33 + $32.34 = $65.34
