Jaden wants to cover the floor with square tiles the same size. The floo measures 315 inches by 108 inches. If she uses only whole tiles, find

A) the greatest possible length of each tile

B) the number of tiles needed to cover the floor.

Each tile must be 9 by 9.

315 / 9 = 35

108 / 9 = 12

A = 35 * 12
