Question

PLEASE ANSWER CORRECTLY THANKS



The floor of a restaurant is covered with 9500 parallelogram-shaped tiles. Each tile has a base of 0.28 meter and a height of 0.34 meter. What is the area of the floor?
0.0952 m2

0.062 m2

904.4 m2

5890 m2

Answer 1

First, you must find the area of 1 of the parallelograms.
The formula for this is bh, or base times height.
.28 • .34 = .0952
Now, multiply the area of 1 of the parallelograms by the amount of how many there are.
.0952 • 9500 = 904.4
This means the answer is that the area of the floor is 904.4 meters squared.

Answer 2

I have the same quiz! All you have to do is multiply 0.28 by 0.34 to get 0.0952 and then multiply that by 9500 to get 904.4. You don't have to divide to find the area because parallelograms are simply rectangles when you switch around the ends, so you multiply like you would with rectangular tiles. It's the same formula! I hope this helps! :)
