Answer:In the diagram, there are 28 tiles. You can do that with easy multiplication or just counting. Each square length is 1.5 feet, or 18 inches. You get that by multiplying 12 by 1.5. The area of a square is 324 inches, found by multiplying 18 by 18. Divide 324 by the area of a tile, 36 (6*6), to get 9. There are 9 tiles in each square. Multiply 9 by 28 to get... 252
