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
A) 200
B) 300
C) 400
D) 500
Correct answer:
C) 400
Description for Correct answer:
Area of square room = \( \Large (10)^{2} \) = 100 sq
= \( \Large 100\times (100)^{2} \) sq cm
= \( \Large 100\times 100\times 100 \) sq cm
Now, area of tile = \( \Large (50)^{2}=50\times 50 \) sq cm
Number of tiles needed
= \( \Large \frac{Area \ of \ square \ room}{Area \ of \ tile} \)
= \( \Large \frac{100\times 100\times 100}{50\times 50} \) =400
Hence, 400 tiles will be needed.
