Please put the school subject name in the "School Subject" box.

Thank you.
Divide the area of the courtyard (600 m^2) by the area of a paving stone (0.2 m^2).

In practice, a few extras should be included because some pavers may have to be sawed to fill gaps at the edges. There may also be some breakage.
