The Yoshidas are planning to install ceramic floor is a small hallway. The hallway measures 4 feet by 12 feet. Tiles are squares measuring 3,6,9, or 12 inches on each side. Which tile can the Yoshidas use without having to cut any of them to fit?

length 3,6, and 12 can be used since 4x12= 48 which is the total amount of flooring your need and if you do 48 divided by 3,6, or 12 you will get a divisible number which tells you how much of these tiles you need to fit the whole flooring

first you need to convert the tile sizes into feet
