Mr. Patel’s house is 1,850 ft 2 . He tiles 30% of the house on the first day. He tiles 185 ft 2 each day after that. How many more days will it take Mr. Patel to finish tiling the house?

Area finished on the first day= 1850 x 30% = 555 ft2
Days required to finish tiling the house = 555 / 185 = 3
Therefore, it will take 3 more days for Mr Patel to finish tiling the house.
