Since the floor tiles are 12" by 12", you would need 1 for each square foot of floor space. Since your kitchen is 12' X 14', you have a total area of 168 square feet. Subtracting 4 square feet for the area not being covered leaves a total of 164 square feet to cover. Using 1 tile per square foot you will need a minimum of164 tiles. I suggest you buy a few extras for mistakes or in case one gets broken in the future. I would suggest at least 6 extra for a grand total of 170 tiles. It would actually be : 1 tile for each square foot, since you have a kitchen that is 12' by 14' you do have a total area of 168 feet. you would actually be subtracting 8 square feet considering that you have an area of 2 foot by 4 foot which will not be being tiled (which is 8 sq. ft.). That would make it 160 square feet that you are needing to tile. 1 tile for each square foot also makes 160 tiles. So 160 would be the correct answer. :)

You want to install kitchen floor tiles that measure 12 inches by 12 inches your kitchen measures 12 feet by 14 feet but there is a 2 foot by 4 foot area around the sink that will not be tiled how?

The area around the sink would take two rows of four tiles each, so that is 8 tiles which will NOT be needed. The whole floor would take twelve rows of fourteen tiles = 12 x 14 = 168. So, if we take away the 8 tiles which won't be needed we are left with 160 tiles.
