The length and breadth of the floor of the room are 20 feet and 10 feet respectively. Square tiles of 2 feet length of different colours are to be laid on the floor.

کمرے کے فرش کی لمبائی اور چوڑائی بالترتیب 20 فٹ اور 10 فٹ ہے۔ فرش پر مختلف رنگوں کی 2 فٹ لمبائی کی مربع ٹائلیں بچھائی جائیں گی۔ پہلی قطار میں ہر طرف سیاہ ٹائلیں بچھائی گئی ہیں۔ اگر باقی ماندہ ایک تہائی پر سفید ٹائلیں اور باقی پر نیلی ٹائلیں لگائی جائیں تو کتنی نیلی ٹائلیں ہوں گی؟
Answer: 16
Explanation
Area left after laying black tiles = [(20 -- 4) × (10 -- 4)] sq. ft = 96 sq. ft
Area under white tiles = (13×96)sq.ft=32sq.ft
Area under blue tiles = (96 -- 32) sq. ft. = 64 sq. ft
Number of blue tiles = 64(2×2)=16
