Question 126484:
How many square tiles each of dimension 2m * 2m can be fixed on a verandah 2m. wide surrounding a rectangular room of length 20m. and breadth 15m. Answer by checkley71(8403) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 20*15=300 m^2 is the area of the veranda.
(20+2*2)(15+2*2)
24*19=456 m^2 total area of veranda plus the addition.
456-300=156 m^2 area of the addition.
156/(2*2)=156/4=39 2X2 m tiles will do the job.
NOTE: one tile will have to be cut in half.
