Area Problems
Floor of a square room of side 10 m is to be completely covered with square tiles, each having length 50 cm. The smallest number of tiles needed is?
Area of square room = (10)2 = 100 sq m= 100 x (100)2 sq cm= 100 x 100 x 100 sq cmNow, area of tiles = (50)2 = 50 x 50 sq cm? Number of tiles needed = (Area of square room) / (Area of tile)= (100 x 100 x 100) / (50 x 50) = 400Hence, 400 tiles will be needed.
Length = (40 x 10 ) dm = 400 dm.Breadth = (15 x 10 ) dm = 150 dm.Area of veranda = (400 x 150 ) dm2Area of one stone = (6 x 5 ) dm2? Required number of stones = (400 x 150) /(6 x 5) = 2000
