It depends on he dimensions of the tiles. One 17ft x 17ft tile will me more than enough!

∙ 11y agoA 12x24 tile is 2 square feet. There are 120 tiles that would be needed.
240 sq ft = 240x12x12 = 34560 sq inches Each tikle is 18 x 18 = 324 sq inches Thus you need 34560/324 = 107 tiles

12X20 = 240 sq feet 12"x12" tiles are 1 sq foot each so must be 240/1= 240
It is assumed that the question refers to a square that is 50 cm * 50 cm. And likewise with the area to be tiled (otherwise the question becomes trivial). 50 cm *50 cm = 0.5m*0.5m = 0.25 m2 240 m * 240 m = 57600 m2 So the number of tiles needed = 57600/0.25 = 230400 tiles. That is the mathematical answer and assumes that there are no breakages or other wastage.
240 square tiles are needed
A 12x24 tile is 2 square feet. There are 120 tiles that would be needed.
If you mean 20 in x 20 in tiles, the 240 sq ft room is 240 x 144 sq in = 34560 sq in. each tile is 20 x20 = 400 sq in tiles needed are 34560/400 = 86.4 tiles, say 90 tiles
(100*144)/(12*5) = 240 tiles are needed
240 sq ft = 240x12x12 = 34560 sq inches Each tikle is 18 x 18 = 324 sq inches Thus you need 34560/324 = 107 tiles

1 tile = 1.77 of a square foot, 240 Sq.Ft. divided by 1.77 = 135.5 tiles ok
