Answer:

15

Explanation:

We know that the floor tile is a square shape, meaning that all 4 sides have to be congruent.

The area of the square floor tile is 225, meaning that the 2 numbers multiplied to get 225 have to be equal according to a square classification requirement.

So,
\sqrt{ 225 equals 15, meaning that the length of one side equals 15 feet.

Hope this helps! :)
