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.

How many 12x12 tiles do i need to cover a 13.6354 circle?

To determine how many 12x12 tiles are needed to cover a circle with a diameter of 13.6354, first calculate the area of the circle using the formula (A = \pi r^2). The radius is half the diameter, so (r = 6.8177). This gives an area of approximately 145.08 square units. Each 12x12 tile covers 144 square units, so you would need at least one tile, but since the circle doesn't fit perfectly within the tile, you may need additional tiles to cover the entire area.


How many tiles you need for a 12foot x 12foot floor 16inch x 16inch tile?

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.
