Horizon Building Company is constructing a new office building. They have 5,176 ceiling tiles. The office building will have nine floors, and they need to put an equal number of tiles on each floor. How many ceiling tiles will be on each floor? How many extra tiles will they have?

Answer:575 and 1 extra tile

Step-by-step explanation:if the total tiles is 5,176 which will be used in 9 floors. We will divide the total tiles by the floors. Therefore we will get 5176 / 9 = 575.111

Therefore each floor will have 575 tiles

To get the remaining tiles

575*9 = 5175 which gives us a remainder of 1 tile when you subtract the total 5176 - 5175 = 1
