Answer 2

The number of tiles needed = 1280.

Explanation:

The kitchen measuring 20ft by 16 ft.

Let's convert the measurement in inches.

1 foot = 12 inches.

20ft = 20*12 = 240 inches

16 ft = 16*12 = 192 inches

The area of the kitchen = 240*192 = 46,080 square inches

The area of the vinyl tile = 6*6 = 36 square inches.

The number of tiles needed = 46080/36 = 1280 tiles

Hope this will helpful.

Thank you.
