A kitchen floor measures 22 feet by 16 feet. He plans on laying tile down and each tile piece measures 16 inches by 16 inches. How many tiles does he need to buy?
He needs to buy 198 tiles. To find this, break down the dimensions of the room from feet into inches then divide each number(264in and 192in) by 16in. This gives you 16.5 by 12 tiles. Now multiply 16.5 by 12 and you have your total number of tiles.
