First convert the length of the mural to inches: 15 feet * 12 inches/foot = <<15*12=180>>180 inches

Then convert the height of the mural to inches: 10 feet * 12 inches/foot = <<10*12=120>>120 inches

Then multiply the length and the height to find the total area of the mural: 180 inches * 120 inches = <<180*120=21600>>21600 square inches.

Since each tile is 1 square inch, this is also the number of tiles she needs.
