Add 8 plus 6 and you have your answer. You need to use four and arrange them so that the long side is against a short side, sort of like laying paving stones..

Unfortunately, that will give a herring bone pattern, not a square. The smallest square has sides which are the least common multiple of 6 cm and 8 cm, that is, 24 cm.
1 x 42 2 x 21 3 x 14 6 x 7
The perimeter of a square is 100 inches. How many square tiles 1 inch on each edge are needed to cover its area?
24.
1 by 56, 2 by 28, 4 by 14 and 8 by 7This is the same as asking for the factor pairs of 56.56 = 1x56 = 2x28 = 4x14 = 8x7.You can make four different rectangles.
That depends entirely - on the measurement of the laminate tiles, and the number of tiles per pack !
1375 cm * 1375 cm

in a square/rectangular room, count the tiles across and the tiles along then multiply.
It should take about 825 1 foot square tiles to cover a floor with those dimensions. This assumes roughly a 10% waste factor.
20 tiles.

If you are not allowd to cut any and you can disregard the width of the grout between the tiles: 125x = 55y , x and y are integers 5*25x = 5*11y 11*5*25 = 25*11*5 = 1375 A square 13.75 meters on each side using 275 tiles
The smallest size would be 15x15 feet which is 225 feet2. That is 9, 5x5 feet tiles. Or it is 25, 3x3 feet tiles.
I recall answering this recently. If the area is square, and the tile dimensions are in inches then the tiles are 4 sq ft and you need 12 tiles. If the area is not square (Circular? Long and thin?) then you will have wastage, so you will need more tiles.
The number of 13 inch tiles needed will depend on the actual dimensions of the floor rather than the square footage. If the room is square, 169 tiles, with 1/16 inch or larger grouted seams, will completely cover it. If the floor is rectangular, additional tiles will be needed, the exact number depending on how many tiles must be cut. As a general rule, approximately 10 percent extra is usually sufficient to cover waste from cutting and accidental breakage.
