The simplest way possible:
10/6 x 18 = 30tiles
Because the ratio of
RedTiles : AllTiles =
6 : 10
And we are searching for All the tiles used.
The number of square tiles uses is 30.
Barbara is tiling her craft room with square tiles.
She wants 6/10 of the square tiles to be red.
The unitary method is generally a way of finding out the solution of a problem by initially finding out the value of a single unit, and then finding out the essential value by multiplying the single unit value.
Let, the number of square tiles uses be x.
She wants 6/10 of the square tiles to be red.
Then,
If she uses 18 red tiles the number of square tiles used is,
\(\rm \dfrac{18}{x} = \dfrac{6}{10}\\\\18 \times 10 = x\times 6\\\\180=6x\\\\x = \dfrac{180}{6}\\\\x=30\)
Hence, the number of square tiles uses is 30.
