To calculate the cost of covering the floor, we first need to convert the measurements from feet to inches.
19 feet = 19 * 12 inches = 228 inches
16 feet = 16 * 12 inches = 192 inches
Now, let's find the number of tiles needed to cover the floor:
Floor area = 228 inches * 192 inches = 43,776 square inches
Tile area = 8 inches * 8 inches = 64 square inches
Number of tiles needed = Floor area / Tile area = 43,776 square inches / 64 square inches = 684 tiles
Now, let's calculate the total cost:
Cost per tile = 0.09 taka
Total cost = Number of tiles needed * Cost per tile = 684 tiles * 0.09 taka = 61.56 taka
Therefore, the cost to cover a floor measuring 19 feet by 16 feet with square tiles measuring 8 inches on each side at a cost of 0.09 taka per piece is 61.56 taka.
19 feet = 19 * 12 inches = 228 inches
16 feet = 16 * 12 inches = 192 inches
Now, let's find the number of tiles needed to cover the floor:
Floor area = 228 inches * 192 inches = 43,776 square inches
Tile area = 8 inches * 8 inches = 64 square inches
Number of tiles needed = Floor area / Tile area = 43,776 square inches / 64 square inches = 684 tiles
Now, let's calculate the total cost:
Cost per tile = 0.09 taka
Total cost = Number of tiles needed * Cost per tile = 684 tiles * 0.09 taka = 61.56 taka
Therefore, the cost to cover a floor measuring 19 feet by 16 feet with square tiles measuring 8 inches on each side at a cost of 0.09 taka per piece is 61.56 taka.
