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?

The formula for the area of a parallelogram is base * height.
Each tile has an area of .28 * .34 = .0952 meters^2
The total are of the floor is 0.28 * 0.34 * 9500 = 904.4 meters^2
