Answer:

Length of the floor is about 11.75 feet.

Explanation:

It is given that, it takes 12.5 tiles to cover the length of the floor.

The length of each square tile is 11.25 inches. So, if 12.5 tiles each of length 11.25 inches are joined, we will get to know the length of the floor.

So, the length of the floor is,


11.25 * 12.5


=140.625 \text {in}

So the length of the floor is 140.625 inches or we can say roughly about 141 inches.

We can convert this length into feet.

1 feet = 12 inches, so the length of the floor in inches is,


(141)/(12) =11.75 \text {ft}

So the length of the floor is 11.75 feet.
