Answer:

$900

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the area of the floor with the equation A = lw

A = lw

A = (20)(20)

A = 400 ft²

Since each tile covers 1 sq ft and the floor's area is 400 sq ft, they will need 400 tiles.

To calculate the total cost, multiply 400 by 2.25

400(2.25) = 900

= $900
900 dollars they will spend
