A room measures 6m by 8m to the nearest meter. A carpet tile measures 50cm exactly. What is the maximum number of carpets tiles that need to be bought to cover the floor of the rectangular room?
upper bounds = 8.5m and 6.5m
Maximum = 8.5*6.5 = 55.25m^2
55.25m^2 = 552500cm^2
50*50 = 2500cm^2
552500/2500 = 221
maximum amount of carpet tiles = 221
I don,t know show us how you did it
idk
To find the maximum number of carpet tiles needed to cover the floor of the rectangular room, we can calculate the total area of the room and divide it by the area of one carpet tile.
1. First, let's calculate the area of the room. To do this, multiply the length and width of the room:
Area of the room = length × width
Area of the room = 6m × 8m
Area of the room = 48 square meters
2. Now, let's convert the size of the carpet tile to meters to ensure consistency. Since 1 meter is equal to 100 centimeters, we need to convert 50 centimeters to meters by dividing it by 100:
Size of carpet tile in meters = 50cm ÷ 100
Size of carpet tile in meters = 0.5 meters
3. Next, we calculate the area of one carpet tile. To find the area, square the size, since it is a square tile:
Area of one carpet tile = (size of carpet tile)^2
Area of one carpet tile = (0.5m)^2
Area of one carpet tile = 0.25 square meters
4. Finally, we divide the total area of the room by the area of one carpet tile to find the maximum number of tiles needed:
Maximum number of carpet tiles = Area of the room ÷ Area of one carpet tile
Maximum number of carpet tiles = 48 square meters ÷ 0.25 square meters
Maximum number of carpet tiles = 192 carpet tiles
Therefore, the maximum number of carpet tiles needed to cover the floor of the rectangular room is 192 tiles.
UB 650x 850 =552500
50x 50=2500
552500/2500=221
A room is 8 meter long and 6 meter wide.if floor is paved of square tiles then what should be the maximum size of the tile?sole it
48m^2 boiiiii
600*800=4800cm
4800/50=96
600 cm x 800 cm = 480000 cm^2, not 4800 cm
each tile covers 2500 cm^2
number of tiles = 480000/2500
= 192
or
you can lay 12 tiles along the 6 m side
and 16 tiles along the 8 m side
number of tiles = 12x16 or 192
