Patterns in Floor Tiling A square floor is to be tiled with square tiles as shown. There are blue tiles on the main diagonals and red tiles everywhere else.
In all cases, both blue and red tiles must be used. and the two diagonals must have a common blue tile at the center of the floor.
If 81 blue tiles will be used, how many red tiles will be needed?
