I am referring to This Problem, I fail to understand the logic why are we using ceil function to solve this problem. That way also we are breaking the flagstone right?
Below is the problem description:
Theatre Square in the capital city of Berland has a rectangular shape with the size n × m meters. On the occasion of the city's anniversary, a decision was taken to pave the Square with square granite flagstones. Each flagstone is of the size a × a.
What is the least number of flagstones needed to pave the Square? It's allowed to cover the surface larger than the Theatre Square, but the Square has to be covered. It's not allowed to break the flagstones. The sides of flagstones should be parallel to the sides of the Square.
Input The input contains three positive integer numbers in the first line: n, m and a (1 ≤ n, m, a ≤ 109).
Output Write the needed number of flagstones.
Input **** 6 6 4 Output 4
It's allowed to cover the surface larger than the Theatre Square, but the Square has to be covered.You don't break the stones, you just cover more than you need.
