First off i dont like using fractions so i will convert 3/4 into 0.75 to start. Then i would divide 0.75 into 10 and that equals 13 and 1/3

The answer is 13 tiles and 1/3 of a tile to make one row

Answer:

14

Step-by-step explanation:

Late  the number of tile =x .

According to question we can write .

[tex]\frac{3}{4} *x\geq 10[/tex]

[tex]x\geq 10*\frac{4}{3}[/tex]

[tex]x\geq \frac{40}{3}\\x\geq 13\frac{1}{3} \\[/tex]

Since the number of tiles cannot be in fraction or decimal hence the number of required tiles is 14
