    Given:

    Square tiles = 5 inches wide

    Rectangular row of tiles = 9 ft by 7 inches wide

    First, we need to convert the feet into inches. 1 foot = 12 inches

    9ft x 12 inches/ft = 9 * 12 inches = 108 inches

    We need to get the area of both shapes.

    Square tile = (5in) ² = 25in²

    Rectangle = 108 inches * 7 inches = 756in²

    756 in² : 25 in² = 30.24 tiles round to 31 tiles.
