# Square tiles

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

Result

n =  105
a =  80 cm

#### Solution:

$1200=2^4 \cdot 3 \cdot 5^2 \ \\ 560=2^4 \cdot 5 \cdot 7 \ \\ \text{GCD}(1200, 560)=2^4 \cdot 5=80 \ \\ \ \\ a=GCD(1200,560)=80 \ \\ n=1200 \cdot \ 560/a^2=1200 \cdot \ 560/80^2=105$

Our examples were largely sent or created by pupils and students themselves. Therefore, we would be pleased if you could send us any errors you found, spelling mistakes, or rephasing the example. Thank you!
