Let g= no green tiles and r = no of red tiles
At beginning r + g = 15
At end r = g - 2
Add back the 5 red tiles and then r = g -2 + 5 = g - 3
Substituting g-3 for r in original then g-3 + g = 15
2g = 12
g= 6
r= 15 - g = 15 - 6 = 9
No of red tiles = 9; green tiles = 6

How many 13 x 13 inch tiles are needed for a 15 x 15 foot room?
In practice you will use more tiles than the equivalent area of the room. A 15 foot strip of tiles will require 15 times 12/13 = 13.846 tiles to cover it. This will have to be rounded to 14 tiles. That means that the 15 foot by 15 foot room will require 14 times 14 tiles = 196 tiles to cover it. And that's if you don't drop and break any or mess up one or more cuts.

What colour would you suggest for kitchen walls when there is lots of green in the wall and floor tiling?
To enhance the green in the tiles, use more green, either in the same or a darker tone. To compliment the green and brighten the room use yellow and/or white. To give it a more "masculine" or neutral look use tan or beige with lots of natural woods.
