Answer 1

Explanation:

Given that,

The area of a wall to be tiled in 1.5 metres by 2.5 metres.

Tiles are 50cm by 50cm

The tiles are £0.99 each.

We need to find the cost of the tiles in pounds.

The area of tiles will be :

`A=50* 50\\\\A=2500\ cm^2`

Cost of 1 time = £0.99

So, for 2500 cm², total cost will be :

`C=2500* 0.99\\\\C=\$2475`

Hence, this is the required solution.
