A flooring tile has the shape of a parallelogram whose base is 24 cm and the corresponding height is 10 cm. How many such tiles are required to cover a floor of area 1080 m2? (If required you can split the tiles in whatever way you want to fill up the corners)

Solution

We know, Area of parellelograms = Base × Corresponding height

Area of a tile =24100×10100

=24010000
=0.024 m2

Area of the floor =1080 m2

Now,
Number of tiles =Total areaArea of one tile
=10800.024
=45000 tiles
