    A)  30 tiles

    B)  15 tiles

    C)  25 tiles

    D)  45 tiles

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Largest length of side of square tile is the HCF of 225 and 30. \[\therefore \] HCF = 15 Number of tiles required \[=\frac{\text{Area of plot}}{\text{Area of 1 tile}}=\frac{225\times 30}{15\times 15}=30\]
