Question 42
Rectangular wall MNOP of a kitchen is covered with square tiles of 15 cm length (as shown in the figure). Find the area of hte wall.
In rectangular wall MNOP,
Number of square tiles = 28
Length of one square tile = 15 cm
In square, all sides are equal
∴ Area of one square tile = Side ×Side= 15 ×15 = 225 cm2
∴ Area of 28 tiles = 225×28 = 6300 sq cm
Hence, total area of wall MNOP is 6300 sq cm.
