Area of one tile = 6" x 6" = 0.5 ft x 0.5 ft = 0.25 sq ft.

Area to be covered = 65 sq ft

Minimum number of tiles required = 65/0.25 = 260 tiles.

This is the minimum number. In real life, the number may be larger if the area to be covered is not rectangular, or whose sides are not not an exact number of half-feet. It will then be necessary to cut tiles and that could result in breakages. Also, additional tiles may be required unless you are prepared to have a mosaic of all the offcuts.
