Answer:

190 square feet.

Explanation:

In this problem, we assume that the courtyard measures 950 square feet.

So, 20% of 950 is


20 \%(950)=(20)/(100)950=(1)/(5)950= 190ft^(2)

That is, the 20% of the courtyard is 190 square feet.

Therefore, the complete statement is

Since 20% of 950 is 190 , students can use 190 square feet of the courtyard
