Ramesh is tiling a verandah made of a 5 m × 4 m part and a 4 m × 1 m part. He uses square tiles of side 50 cm. How many tiles does he need?

Question

Accepted Answer

96. Verandah area = 20 + 4 = 24 sq m. A 50 cm tile is half a metre each way, so 4 tiles fit in 1 sq m. Tiles = 24 × 4 = 96. (24 assumes 1 tile per sq m.)
