If the flooring comes in rectangular 1 meter by 2 meters pieces, each piece will cover 2 square meters, and you will need to cut pieces and join pieces to fit your room dimensions.
In meters, 270 cm = 2.7 m, 400 cm = 4.0 m, and the entire floor surface area is
(2.7 m) X (4.0 m) = 10.8 square meters.
That would require to buy six (6) pieces of flooring, and you would have to cut two of those pieces. (Five pieces would only give you 10.0 square meters and that would be far from enough).
There are many possible tiling patterns for joining entire pieces and cut pieces of flooring. If this is a real life problem, you would consider issues like your ability to make good unions, your pattern preferences, where the high traffic areas are, where the unions would less visible, and where they could be hidden under furniture. Here are some tiling options.

With the first five choices, you could hide unevenly cut edges by the walls, under baseboard trim. The last design requires some very clean cuts (or buying extra material). I would not get too fancy.
