To determine the number of 12 square tiles that fit into a 350 sq ft room, divide the total area of the room by the area of one tile. In this case, the area of one tile is 12 sq ft. Therefore, 350 sq ft divided by 12 sq ft equals approximately 29.2 tiles. Since you cannot have a fraction of a tile, you would need to round the number down to 29 tiles.
It would depend on the precise layout of the room, and how well you can cut tiles if the room isn't some precise multiple of 1.5 feet. In general, a tile that is 18 inches square covers 1.5*1.5=2.25 square feet. Disregarding tile fragments, 350 / 2.25 = 155.5555 tiles.
A 16 X 16 inch tile encompasses 256 inches (16 multiplied by 16). A square foot = 12 inches X 12 inches. So 350 square feet would be 350 multiplied by 12 multiplied by 12 = 50,400 inches. So 50,400 inches (350 square feet) divided by 256 inches (16 X 16 inch tile) = 196.875 which would mean you would need approximately 197 tiles. This is only the math portion of your question, however you may need more than that to account for errors and tile cuts to fit the dimensions of your room.
To measure 350 square feet, a room can have various dimensions, as the area is the product of length and width. For example, a room could be 25 feet by 14 feet, or 35 feet by 10 feet, among other combinations. The key is that the total area calculated from the chosen dimensions must equal 350 square feet.
It's a big room, but you can't tell the dimensions from just the area of the floor. If the room is square, then it's 18ft 8.5in (rounded) on all sides. But it could also be 5' x 70' 10' x 35' 50' x 7' or a huge list of other possibilities. Any one of them would have an area of 350 square feet.
