How many 6 by 6 tiles you need for 60 square feet?

Answer 1

Assume the units for 6's are feet.

First, determine the area of each tile, using the area of the square.

A = s²

= (6 ft)² = 36 ft²

Divide 60 ft² by 36 ft² to get approximately 2 tiles [Even though you won't be able to fit the tiles into that much area! You need to slice the portion of the second tile and include it for the amount of spacing you want to add for the flooring.]

Second assumption: 6 x 6 means 6 inches by 6 inches

This means you need 4 tiles per square foot, so 60 square feet needs 240 tiles. In practice, the edges of the area don't line up with the area's perimeter, so you might need more than 240 and you might need to cut some.
