Answer:

96 tiles

Explanation:

if the rectangular region has dimensions of 168cm by 72 cm then what you would do is multiple them to find the area (168 x 72) which would equal 12,096. then after that you would find the area of the tiles, with the given dimensions being 14cm by 9cm you would do 14 x 9, which would give you 126 sq cm. then after you have you two products, you would then divide them (12,096/126). this equation would give you the sum of 96 tiles be able to fit within the rectangular region.
