A confused guy does not know how to unscramble the word 'fideiyiltn'. What are the chances he'll use the letter 'i' to start his word in his attempt to find a solution?

lol, using archimedes principle of displacement, which states that 'any floating object displaces its own weight of fluid' you calculate the weight of real gold of the same volume with the crown, then immerse the crown in the bowl, it should be able to displace the same volume of water calculated. If less then sauer should be searched thoroughly cheesy
sauer:

inscribed in a unit square means the diameter of the circle is 1, and radius 1/2.
Perimeter of the circle = 2 *22/7*1/2 = 22/7.

@flashaldrin, in my question you need to approximate your value even if it's in decimal, to get the total number of tiles needed thats Area of the room divided by area of one tile, <area=lenght *breadth>, then we will multiply the answer we get by 950,that will give us the total cost + workmanship, then subtract from the money in your account<50,000naira>, the answer is what you have left in the bank, I know you know it but the question is misunderstood, poor lad,read the question over again,

hmm dont really get you, by what you are saying
6.5*8/0.15*0.12 gives you the approximate number of tiles needed = 2889. Multiplying by 950 is 2,744,550.
