We also can see that 128cm = length of 2 white tile + 1 grey tile
So, if we add two times of 20cm, we can change it into 3 grey tile lengths.
128cm + 20cm + 20cm = 168cm
Then, length of 1 grey tile
= 168cm ÷ 3
= 56cm
1 square tile length
= 128cm - 2 grey tile lengths
= 128cm - 56cm - 56cm
= 16cm
Area of square tile
= 16cm × 16cm
= 256 cm²
We can see that 1 grey tile length
= 1 square tile length + 20cm + 20cm
= 1 square tile length + 40cm
We also see that 128cm = 2 grey tile lengths + 1 square tile length.
So 128cm
= 2 square tile lengths + 80cm + 1 square tile length
= 3 square tile lengths + 80cm
3 square tile lengths
= 128cm - 80cm
= 48cm
1 square tile length
= 48cm ÷ 3
= 16cm
Area of square tile
= 16 cm × 16 cm
= 256 cm²
