What are units?
A unit can be used for measurement, and is commonly found in mathematics to describe length, size, etc.
Because we are dealing with different units here, we first would need to know how many inches are in one foot.
1 foot = 12 inches
Now that we know how many inches are in a foot, we can convert the length and width of the room from feet to inches.
6 feet = 72 inches
10 feet = 120 inches
Taking these numbers, we now need to figure out the area of the floor.
72 × 120 = 8640
Now, find the area of each tile.
6 × 8 = 48
Taking 8640, we can now divide that by 48 to get the number of tiles needed.
8640 ÷ 48 = 180
Therefore, 180 tiles are needed to cover the floor.
