A room measures 45 m by 15 m. What is the least number of rectangular tiles required to pave the floor of the room if each tile is 50 cm by 1 m?

Hey Batala426,
If the room is 45m x 15m, then the total area is** 675 metres squared**. Each tile is 50cm x 1m, so the area of each one is 0.5 metres squared .
675 / 0.5 = 1350
So the least number of tiles you need to pave the whole room is 1350 tiles .
Hope this helps!

The least number of tiles required to cover a room measuring 45m by 15m is 1350 tiles, as calculated by determining the area of the room and the area of each tile. Each tile measures 50 cm by 1 m. This calculation ensures that the entire floor is covered without any gaps.
