Best Answer

you will bust it up & remove & drop a new one in it's place..

That is the short answer.

The grout will have to removed as well & breaking tile & flying grout can be dangerous on your eyes & ears, fingers & toes, so make sure you wear safety glasses, hearing protection & gloves & shoes are nice in the workplace too.

Please understand that you will need to remove enough of the old thinset/ to put more in to hold the new tile & the grout will never match..NEVER!

so while you will get rid of a crack the new tile will not match the old & the new grout will not either... good luck..
