Question

Answer 1

I agree with Hume/her

Answer 2

480 cm of floor space and 12 stairs

Explanation:

1 cm = .01 m

First calculate how many stairs you need in the Y dimension

3.6 m = 360 cm

360/30 = 12 stairs

since each stair is 40 cm deep -

12 x 40 = how long the floor needs to be

12 x 40 = 480
