OpenStudy (anonymous):

anybody? :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

area of floor= length *breadth= 1 inch =0.0254meter so u can find area of tile in square meters now no. of tiles needed=area of floor/area of one tile

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you explain it a bit more? Im kinda confuse

OpenStudy (anonymous):

length x width u mean?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

aha @Krutarth got tricked LOL

OpenStudy (anonymous):

first find the area of a tile in squaremeter 1 square inch=0.0254*0.0254 square meters here 24*24 square inch = (24*24)*(0.0254*0.0254)=area of tile

OpenStudy (anonymous):

got it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

.3716 is what i got

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then find the area of floor=2.4384*4.272 square meter now no. of tiles needed=area of floor/area of one tile

OpenStudy (anonymous):

10.416

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so take this 10.416/.3716 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

28.032

OpenStudy (anonymous):

does that sounds right ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i miss typed some values.did u copy wat i typed or from the picture?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

doesn't matter if you get decimal.just round it to next higher integer=29 tiles

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i copied what you typed

OpenStudy (anonymous):

which one you miss typed ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

in the floor area calculation. area of floor=2.4384*4.2672 square mete, this is right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok so let me re-do it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so now the result is 28.0009 so i guess 28 is fine ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

nop then u'll leave some space empty. 29 is still good
