12in × 12in is the same as 1ft × 1 ft. That makes things easy.
(12ft ×14ft) - (2ft × 4ft) = 160 ft²
If this is just a math problem for homework, then that is your answer.
In real life, you will want to get more than you need, for cutting and in case of defects, accidents etc. So in reality you would probably want 180 tiles for a 160 ft² project.

Go ahead and get 176 tiles (160 plus a 10% error and cut rate). You will need extra anyway just in case one gets broken, etc. Good Luck on your project.

160 Tiles:
(12 x 14) - (2 x 4) = 160
12 inches by 12 inches is one square foot.
