you might be tempted to divide 500 by the area of the tiles, but keep in mind that you cannot tile a floor with fractions of a tile. And though it may be possible to get two usable sections out of one tile, we should not assume that we can. In fact, the number of tiles that you need depends on what the shape of the area is.
Let us assume that is the area is a square in which case the length and width are both √500 feet, approximately 22.36 feet or 268.32 inches. 268.32 divided by 16 is 16.77, so we need 17 tiles in each dimension, or 289 tiles.
But if the area is 20 by 25 feet, or 240 by 300 inches, we get a different answer. In this case we need 15 tiles in one direction and 19 in the other, a total of 285 tiles.

How many 3 inch by 6 inch tiles are in 1 square foot?
A 3 inch by 6 inch tile covers 18 square inches which converts to 0.125 square feet. 35 square feet divided by 0.125 square feet is 280 tiles. This does not take into the consideration the area taken up by grout between the tiles and putty at the ends so it will probably be less than 280 tiles. But unless the area to be covered exactly matches a layout of the tiles, some tiles will have to be cut to fit against the edges. Some will break or be miscut so you should probably get about 300 tiles. You can keep the extra in case some break accidentally or most stores will accept return of the unused tiles.
