How to calculate number of tiles required for flooring?

 ● Given dimension :-

Tile calculation

  For A1 room = 18’×16′ =288 sqft

   For A2 room = 16’×12′ = 192 sqft

    For A3 room = 16′ ×12′ = 192 sqft

   For A4 room = 18′ × 16′ = 288 sqft

 Size of one tile= 24”×24” = 4 sqft

 24″ = 2 feet

 ● Calculation :-

  Total area of all room = 288 +192 +192 +288

 Total area = 960 sqft

 Total area of 1 tile = 4 sqft

 Number of tile require = total area of room/ area of one tile

 Number of tile = 960 /4 = 240 

 Lat us consider 5% wastage of tile

 Wastage tile = 240×5/100 =12

 Hence total tiles require for flooring sites of the house having for  4 room 

  Number of tiles =240+12 =252 Ans.
