16x16 inch tiles are square. If you place them on a circle, the edges will hang off, so we first need to find the size of the largest square that will fit in the circle. The largest square can be made of four isosceles triangles whose equal sides are equal to the length of the radius, so the area of the contained square is 2r2.
An 11-foot diameter circle has a radius of 5.5 feet, so the square has an area of 2(5.5)2 = 60.5 square feet, or 60.5 * 122 square inches = 8712 square inches. The 16x16 tiles are 256 square inches, so 8712 / 256 = 34.03125 tiles that fit completely in the circle.
Each 16 in * 16 in tile covers 11/3 * 11/3 square feet = 16/9 sq feet. Area to be covered = 12*12 = 144 square feet. So number of tiles required = 144/(9/16) = 144*16/9 = 81 tiles.
You would need a total of 89 tiles (88.88 tiles exactly) with those measurements to cover that area.
The number of tiles needed to cover the floor is a function of the size of the tiles
The amount of tiles needed to cover a floor will depend on the size of the floor.
30 tiles! But you'll need more than 30 tiles to cover wastage, breakage, etc.
49 tiles
76.6 tiles
it would be 81 tiles
Depends on how big the tiles are.
6,144 tiles !
67 tiles.
can you completely cover a 3ftx6ft area with 2ftx2ft tiles
