Lynn is putting tiles on her bathroom floor. Each tile measures 1 square foot each. The floor measures 4 1/2 ft by 3 3/4 ft. How many tiles will she need to cover the floor?

Respuesta :

Considering the area of the rectangle, it is found that she will need 17 tiles to cover the floor.

What is the area of a rectangle?

The area of a rectangle of length l and width w is given by the multiplication of dimensions, that is:

A = lw

The dimensions in feet are given as follows:

  • l = 4 1/2 ft = 4.5 ft.
  • w = 3 3/4 ft = 3.75 ft.

Hence the area in square feet is given by:

A = 4.5 x 3.75 = 16.875 ft².

Each tile has 1 square foot, hence, rounding, she will need 17 tiles to cover the floor.
