How many 400 x 800 tiles in a square metre (m2)?
The quantity of 400 x 800 tiles in a square metre (m2) equals 4 tiles. Assuming dimensions of the tile width and height are in millimetre measurements, which equates to 40cm x 80cm tiles in a square metre.

How To calculate how many 400x800 tiles there are in a m2
To calculate how many 400x800 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:
400mm x 800mm =
0.32 m2
or
40cm x 80cm =
0.32 m2
Step 2:
Divide 1m by the area of one tile to give you the number of 400mm x 800mm tiles in a m2: 1m / 0.32 = 3.1 Tiles per m2
Step 3:
NOTE: It is only possible to buy whole tiles, therefore you need to round up 3.1 tiles to 4 tiles
3.1 tiles =4 tiles required
