As with any math problem you will need to convert either side of the equation to the same units. in this case it is easier to convert to square inches. As each foot contains 12 inches then each side of your 10 foot square is 12 inches times 10 feet which is 120 inches. So each side is 120 inches long. To find the total square inches you just multiply the two sides. 120 X 120 = 14400. So you "patio" is 14400 square inches in size. Your pavers are 16 inches by 16 inches so multiply their two sides and you'll get 16 X 16 = 256 So a paver is 256 Square inches. Now that both the patio and the paver are in the same units you only need to divide the patio (14400) by a Paver (256) and that is 56.25 pavers. Round that up because they usually won't sell you a 1/4 paver. Here is how to make the patio come out right. Measure over from each corner one half the length of each side and place a pin in the ground. Stretch a string fairly tight across from one side pin to the other to create a cross. Place you pavers starting in the center with each of the first four paver's corners aligned with the corners created by the strings cross. continue laying the edges of the pavers along the strings until you reach the point where a paver will not fit in the space left. Carefully cut the last paver in the row to fit that remaining dimension. Repeat this in all directions until you have filled the 10 by 10 space. Be sure to maintain the same spacing between the pavers in all directions.
If you do not have the ability to cut your pavers then you should probably follow the directions above only when you reach the point where a paver will not fit in the remaining space. Make that the new size of your patio and that will be about nine and a half feet by nine and a half feet square with 1/2 inch spacing between each 16 by 16 paver and you will need only 49 pavers.

How many 16x16 pavers needed for 5x5 patio?
To determine how many 16x16 pavers are needed for a 5x5 patio, first calculate the area of the patio and the area of one paver. The patio area is 5 feet x 5 feet = 25 square feet. Each 16x16 paver covers 2.67 square feet (16 inches = 1.33 feet, so 1.33 x 1.33 ≈ 1.78 square feet). Dividing the patio area by the paver area, you need approximately 10 pavers (25 ÷ 1.78 ≈ 14). Therefore, you would need about 15 pavers to cover the patio area completely.

You would need 81 16x16 pavers to cover a 36 square foot area. Each 16x16 paver covers an area of 1.78 square feet, so dividing 36 by 1.78 gives you 20.22 pavers. Since you can't have a fraction of a paver, you would round up to the nearest whole number, which is 81.

How many 16x16 pavers cover 390 square feet?
The answer depends on the measurement units used for 16x16. The answer also depends on the shape of the 390 sq ft area to be covered because the more irregular the shape, the greater the number of pavers you will need to cut. That is likely to result in some breakage. Furthermore, you may not want to use all the offcuts since that will make part of the area into a mosaic.
How many pavers do you need for 90 square feet and pavers are 16x16?
convert inches to feet. 16"/12"=1.33 ft find area of paver. 1.33 ft x 1.33 ft =1.77 sq ft /paver divide areas. 90 sq. ft./1.77= about 51 pavers
How many pavers would you need if the pavers are 1 square ft and you need to cover a patio area that is 10 feet x 10 feet?
you would need 10 pavers to cover this area if the pavers are 1x1 ..most pavers are not this large they are usually 2x4. I would recommend buying a couple of extra pavers so that you can have cuts instead of all the pavers being the same size.
