Solution

First, we need to convert the dimensions of the room from meters to decimeters because the size of the tiles is given in decimeters.

1 meter = 10 decimeters

So, the room is 80 decimeters long (8m * 10) and 60 decimeters wide (6m * 10).

The area of the room is length * width = 80 decimeters * 60 decimeters = 4800 decimeter square.

Each tile is 4 decimeter square.

So, the number of tiles required is the area of the room divided by the area of each tile = 4800 decimeter square / 4 decimeter square = 1200 tiles.

However, none of the options (a. 200, b. 260, c. 280, d. 300) match this answer. There might be a mistake in the question or the options provided.
