Square tile paving

We have to pave the smallest possible square with rectangular tiles with 168 cm and 280 cm sides. What will its side of the square be?

Final Answer:

a =  8.4 m

Step-by-step explanation:

x=168 cm y=280 cm  168=2337 280=2357 LCM(168,280)=23357=840  z=LCM(x,y)=LCM(168,280)=840 cm  a=z m=z:100  m=840:100  m=8.4 m=8.4 m
