About 352 of the 1.1 square feet tiles can fit.

Answer:

291 small tiles or 177 large size tiles

Step-by-step explanation:

Tom wants to tile the floor in his kitchen, which has an area = 320 feet²

In the store, he likes two type of tile one has an area = 1.1 square feet

and the other has an area = 1.815 square feet.

So he needs the number of small tiles = \(\frac{320}{1.1}\) ≈ 291 tiles

If he needs the number of large tiles = \(\frac{320}{1.815}\) ≈ 177 tiles
