Answer:
You will need 80 square feet of tile to cover the kitchen floor, leaving out the area used by the stove and refrigerator.

Explanation:

Step 1: Calculate the area of the kitchen floor: 7' x 16' = 112 square feet.

Step 2: Calculate the area of the stove: 3' x 4' = 12 square feet.

Step 3: Calculate the area of the refrigerator: 4' x 5' = 20 square feet.

Step 4: Subtract the areas of the stove and refrigerator from the total area of the kitchen floor: 112 - 12 - 20 = 80 square feet.
