What is Division?
The division is one of the four fundamental arithmetic operations, which tells us how the numbers are combined to form a new one.
The area of the hall with dimensions 6 feet by 8 feet are:
[tex]\rm \text{Area of the hall} = 6 feet \times 8foot =48\ feet^2[/tex]
The area of the tile is 8 square inches, therefore, the area of tile in square feet can be written as,
[tex]\rm \text{Area of the tile} = \dfrac8{12 \times 12}\ feet^2[/tex]
Noe, the number of tiles needed to tile the complete area of the hall is,
[tex]\text{Number of tiles needed} = \dfrac{\text{Area of the hall}}{\text{Area of the tile}}\\\\\\\text{Number of tiles needed} = \dfrac{48}{\frac8{12 \times 12}} = \dfrac{48 \times 12 \times 12}{8} = 864[/tex]
Hence, the number of tiles that will be needed to cover the entire area of the hall is 864.
