Answer» Correct Answer - Option 2 : 20 Given : Length and breadth of the room are respectively 100 m and 80 m Concept used : If A and B are the length and breadth of a floor then the length of the square tile required minimum to cover this floor without any wastage will be HCF of A and B Calculations: Length of the tile = HCF of 100 and 80 ⇒ 20 Area of the tile = 20 × 20 = 400 Now, Number of tiles × Area of each tile = 100 × 80 Number of tiles = 8000/400 ⇒ 20 ∴ A minimum of 20 tiles required without any wastage |
