Answer:

Kitchen = 120 tiles

Bathroom 1 = 36 tiles

Bathroom 2 = 64 tiles

Explanation:

Dimension of kitchen = 15 ft 8 ft

Area of Kitchen = 15 * 8 = 120 ft²

Number of kitchen tiles needed = 120ft² / 1ft² = 120 tiles.

Area of tile = 1 ft by 1 ft = 1* 1 = 1ft²

Dimension of bathroom 1 = 6 ft 6 ft

Area of bathroom 1= 6 * 6 = 36 ft²

Number of bathroom 1 tiles needed = 36ft² / 1ft² = 36 tiles.

Dimension of bathroom 2 = 8 ft 8 ft

Area of bathroom 2 = 8 * 8 = 64 ft²

Number of bathroom 2 tiles needed = 64ft² / 1ft² = 64 tiles.
