Answer: There are 972 tiles to cover the kitchen.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
Dimensions of kitchen be
\(24\ ft\ by\ 18\ ft\)
Dimension of each tile = 8 inches
We have to find the number of tiles .
So, Number of tiles is given by
\(\frac{\text{Area of kitchen}}{\text{ Area of tile }}\\\\=\frac{24\times 12\times 18\times 12}{8\times 8}\\\\=\frac{62208}{64}\\\\=972\)
Hence, there are 972 tiles to cover the kitchen.
