60 square feet would be 60 one foot square tiles. Get 5 or 6 extra for breakage.
60 square feet = 60*12*12 = sq inches. Therefore, minimum number of tiles required = 60*12*12/(18*18) = 26.66... ie 27 tiles. That is the classroom answer to the mathematical question. However, in real life, the area to be covered may not be of a shape in which whole tiles can be used. In that case, unless you can use all the offcuts you will require more tiles.
To calculate the number of tiles per square meter for a 60x60 cm tile, we first convert the tile dimensions to square meters. A 60x60 cm tile is 0.36 square meters (60 cm * 60 cm = 3600 square cm = 0.36 square meters). To find the number of tiles per square meter, we divide 1 (representing 1 square meter) by 0.36, which equals approximately 2.78 tiles per square meter.
30*2 = 60 square feet
