Berberis Posted May 23, 2010 Share Posted May 23, 2010 1 foot = 30.48 cm Now you have the knowledge to work it out yourself 13ft x 8ft = 104 ft² 104 ft² = 31.69 m² I'm assuming 400m is actually 400mm or 0.4m² per tile. So you need approx 60 slabs for the whole area (ish) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rubydazzler Posted May 23, 2010 Share Posted May 23, 2010 1 foot = 30.48 cm Now you have the knowledge to work it out yourself 13ft x 8ft = 78 ft² 78 ft² = 23.7744 m² I'm assuming 400m is actually 400mm or 0.4m² per tile. So you need approx 60 tiles to tile the whole floor (ish) *looks admiringly at serapis* Do you also know how many eggs the old lady paid at the toll gates? ETA: 13x8=104 though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
