Answer:

16 tiles

Step-by-step explanation:

If the tile is a 1/4 foot wide, then 4 will fit in a foot, and if theres 4 feet to fill, 16 tiles will fit.

If you wanted to write an equation to solve it:

[tex]\frac{1}{4}x=4[/tex]

where x is the number of tiles that will fit. This equation reads "1/4 foot times the number of tiles = 4 feet"

[tex]\frac{x}{4} =4\\x=4\times4\\x=16[/tex]
