Psoul:


I cant be pained by something i kw that lacks the potential of been painful.

I just told u the bitter truth. U said u are too busy to plan how ur money is bn used. I bet u, u have never made money before. If u do, u will really not be too busy to care about how it is been spent.

Secondly, i dont even see u as someone who is genuinely busy (Take a look at ur profile Pic). What u termed as been busy are those hours u spent at gambling houses (NairaBet and Bet9ja) predicting outcome of match fixtures hoping to become a rich man. My brother, pls go and get real busy. This is an advice not meant to hurt u.
Lolz is that all you can type?

400*400=160000 pls how did you calculate urs and get 0.16m2?

Check the back of your exercise books.
How many millimetres make one metre? Answer is 1000
Convert the 400mm * 400mm dimensions to metres (divide each of them by 1000). Answer is 0.4m * 0.4m
Calculate the area in squared metres now.

Good evening everyone, it's important we tell the world what we do cos I could notice there are several minds in the house. An Agricultural Engineer but very sound in "Floor Coverings" some of which includes (Tiling{Both Wall & Floor}, Terrazzo Floors, Granite Marbles and pre-cast Steps). For as many of us that would love to install TILES or TERRAZZO in his or her building, we are very much available and you won't regret dealing with us. I don't need many explanations on how we handle our projects but our final buffing always speaks and equally pronounces us well. For more inquiries, You can reach us via these phone Nos; 08066526312 & 08075687550: you can also mail us via; thefavouredcoverings@gmail.com.

Op did well.

However, there is a simpler way.

Since the room is 2.5 x 2.4m and a tile is 400 x 400mm.
Take one side say 2.5 and divide by one side of the tile 0.4m which gives 6.25. This means 6 and a quarter tiles will cover end to end of one side of the room. The order side will be 2.4/0.4=6. This means 6.25 rows and 6 columns.

Finally 6.25 x 6= 37.5 tiles to fill the room.

Since each pack is 12 pcs 37.5/12= 3.125packs

Your Method is very accurate also
thanks for improving on this thread for everyone sir

Op , good of you just add this to it
To get accurate meter... By your example
Just multiply the carton by the total content
That is 3.125x1.92=6meter.
Instead of 4 cartons that will result to 7.8m almost 8meter (4x1.92=7.8m)when what exactly you need is 6meter.
Standard tiles is sold per meter.
People that good in tiles business sold tiles per meter. (although when you do the minus and plus very well it will still be same when you convert the carton to meter.

Tiles measurement is done by meter square not by cartons as layman do.
Once you get your total meter take your measurement to where you wanted to get the tiles ask them you need so so meter of tiles, then ask the. To convert it to carton to know how many cartons you are Taking home.
We have more than 30 sizes of tiles
If you check some Italian and Spanish tiles (mostly Italian) you will see
Size 331/2 by 331/2 29.2*29.2 etc


More so to be on saver side while checking your tiles at seller shop
Let's use OP example as case study
If you are buying 59squaremeter of tiles, to know how many cartons to received check it this way
59 divided 1.92=30.72916666..
Means 30cartons
Then to get the remaining pcs
. 72916666 x 12 =8.75that is about 9pcs
12 here is the total pcs of the tiles in the cartons
Means what you will take away from the shop is
30cartons and 8or9pcs of tiles
That equivalent to 59meters of tiles (when you chooses 400*400 floor tiles that contains 12pcs in a cartons
