Square tiles

The room has dimensions of 12 meters and 5.6 meters. Determine the number of square tiles and their largest dimension to exactly cover the floor.

Correct result:

n =  105
a =  80 cm

Solution:

1200=24⋅3⋅52 560=24⋅5⋅7 GCD(1200,560)=24⋅5=80  a=GCD(1200,560)=80 n=1200⋅ 560/a2=1200⋅ 560/802=105
