rectangular tile each of size 20 cm by 30 cm must be laid horizontally on a rectangular floor of size 100 cm by 150 cm , such that the tiles do not overlap and they are placed with edges jutting against each other on all edges . a tile can be placed in any orientation so long as its edges are parallel to the edges of floor . no tile should overshoot any edge of the floor . the maximum number of tiles that can be accommodated on the floor is :
"area of tile = 20 * 30 = 600 area of floor = 100 * 150 = 15000 no of tiles = 15000 / 600 = 25 so , the no of tile = 25 answer : c"
divide(multiply(100, 150), multiply(20, 30))
