Question

Erion plans to tile the floor of his kitchen. The kitchen is 11 feet by 15 feet. The tiles he will be using are square, measuring 8 inches on each side, and are sold in boxes that contain enough tile to cover 25 square feet. How many boxes of tiles must he order to complete the job?

Answer 1

Answer:

First, find the area for the kitchen floor: 16.5*15=247.5 squared feet

Then find the area for one tile: 0.5*0.5=0.25 squared feet

Finally, divide the mayor area between the minor: 247.5/0.25= 990 tiles.

Also you can do it in this another way:

First, divide length of the kitchen floor between the length of one tile: 16.5/0.5=33

Then, do the same for the height: 15/0.5=30

Finally multyply both results: 33*30= 990 tiles.

Step-by-step explanation:

or just 990

Answer 2

I’m pretty sure the answer is 990
