You are working for a company that lays ceramic floor tile and its employees need a program that estimates the number of boxes of tile for a job. A job is estimated by taking the dimension of each room in feet and inches, and converting these dimension for each room into a multiple of the tile size (rounding up any partial multiple) before multiplying to get the number of tiles for the room. A box contains 20 tiles, so the total number needed should be divided by 20 and rounded off to get the number of boxes. The tiles are assumed to be squares.
The program should initially prompt the user for the size of the tile in inches and the number of rooms to be covered with tile. It should then input the dimension for each room and output the number of tiles needed for that room. After data for the last room is entered, the program should output the total number of tiles needed, the number of boxes of tile needed, and how many extra tiles will be left over.
