MATH; Titles are 8ft x 8ft. How many titles will it take to cover a room 4ft by 6ft?

Answer 1

Maybe you meant that the tiles are 8 inches on a side. Thus the area of each tile is 64 square inches.

The area of the room is 24 square feet. Since a square foot = 144 square inches, the area of the room is 144x24 = 3456 square inches.

3456/64 = 54, so it will take 54 tiles to tile the room.

Answer 2

Hi:

If the tiles are that big. Than one title will do you ( you may have to cut it; to fit it in) but if they are 8 inch by 8 inch than 54 of them will do you fine.

Because 4 X 12 = 48 inch and 6 X 12 = 72 inches

48 X 72 = 3456 square inches

8 X 8 = 64 square inches per title

3456 / 64 = 54 titles

and there your answer.

I hope this help you

Answer 3

8 in X 8 in = 2/3ft X 2/3 ft
6 times 2/3 =12/3=4 ft
9 times 2/3=18/3=6 ft

So... 6 tiles by 9 tiles, or 54 tiles

Answer 4

first of all, is it tiles or titles? second, if its 8 X 8 then no tile will fit. if the question is 8" by 8" then the answer is 54 tiles will cover the room. good luck with the problem.

Answer 5

3/8 of a tile

Answer 6

The tile is bigger than the room!!! 64sq Ft versus 24sq Ft. Comes out to be something close to 3/8 of the tile.

Answer 7

One such hugh tile is enough. You have to cut it.

Could it be, that the tiles are 8 inch x 8 inch?
Then the number is
{(4 x12) inch x( 6 x 12)inch} / (8 inch x 8 inch) = 54

Answer 8

What? if the tiles are 8ft by 8ft, then one will be too big for the whole room! lol.

Answer 9

i think tile size should read 8" ( 8 inches) not 8'(8 ft).
size (area) of the room equals 48"(4x12) x 72"= 3456 sq. inch.
thus a room of 3456" requires, 3456/(8 x 8)=54 tiles.

Answer 10

Maybe you typed the question wrong? The tiles are larger than the room the way you have it, so... 1.
