you should all think a bit(mine answer is also gicen wrong) and read the question properly , I THINK WE SHOULD TRY TO FIND OUT THE NO. OF TILES BY TAKING HCF OF 225 AND 30 . REASONS1)BECAUSE THE CHAPTER IS ABOUT NO. CALCULATION , NOT MENSURATION2) YOU DO NOT HAVE A DEFINITE METHOD BY FIRST FINDING THE AREA AND THEN DOING ALL THESE THINGS . THIS METHOD DOES NOT MAKE SENSEso , first of all , we should try out with hcf best of luck!

It should be 15 because the area is not divisible by 15 ........... ALSO if the area be divisible by 30 , but they asked the least number of tiles ......so it cannot be 30 at all

Ans 14:

Bhavtosh Tripathi from Maneckji Cooper Education Trust School, Mumbai
Class : Class 9

Ans 15:

Aadvik saini from Mvn sector 17, Faridabad
Class : Class 8
the answer should be 30. the side of one tile is 15 cm ,but they have asked the tile so it should be 30 only . and those who say that children who are having the answer30 have no brains they only don't have brains

found the solution! the answer is correctif we find hcf of 225 and 30 , WE ARE FINDING OUT THE LENGTH OF ONE SIDE OF A TILE , NOT THE NO. OF TILESTHEN , WE FIND THE AREA OF ONE TILE , THAT IS 15*15=225NOW, DIVIDE THE AREA OF PLOT BY AREA OF ONE TILE .YOU WILL GET THE ANSWER I.E 30
