First step is figure out how many tiles you need. This may be a bit of a trick question, as it doesn't specify whether there are any rules regarding how the tiles are arranged (especially to make up the 80 foot dimension). The simple approach is to divide the room's area by the area of each tile to find the number of tiles needed. What do you get?
