How many 12 x 300 tiles in a square metre (m2)?
The quantity of 12 x 300 tiles in a square metre (m2) equals 278 tiles. Assuming dimensions of the tile width and height are in millimetre measurements, which equates to 1.2cm x 30cm tiles in a square metre.

How To calculate how many 12x300 tiles there are in a m2
To calculate how many 12x300 tiles there are in 1 square metre, use this method:
Step 1:
Multiply the width and height of one tile. So in this case the area of one tile is:
12mm x 300mm =
0.0036 m2
or
1.2cm x 30cm =
0.0036 m2
Step 2:
Divide 1m by the area of one tile to give you the number of 12mm x 300mm tiles in a m2: 1m / 0.0036 = 277.8 Tiles per m2
Step 3:
NOTE: It is only possible to buy whole tiles, therefore you need to round up 277.8 tiles to 278 tiles
277.8 tiles =278 tiles required
