    C 4240 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 3945 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E 3860 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Area of the floor = (132 × 125) m2 Area of each tile = (250 × 160) cm2 = (2.5 × 1.6) m2 Let the number of tiles required be ‘N’ According to the question, N × (2.5 × 1.6) = 132 × 125 Therefore, N = (132 × 125)/(2.5 × 1.6) = 4125 Hence, option b.
