Area of tile = 20 in x 20 in = 5/3 ft * 5/3 ft = 25/9 sq ft

Area to be covered = 12*24 = 288 sq ft

Minimum number of tiles required = 288/ (25/9) = 103.68 rounded up, that is 104.

In real life, you will need more. That will depend on how well behaved the shape is, the extent to which you can use offcuts and your skill level. You should allow 5-7% extra,
