Area\ =100(3)/(4)*75(1)/(2)=100.75*75.5=7606.625\\\\ Area\ is\ equal\ to\ 7606.625feet^2.

we know that


the area of the floor is equal to the area of a rectangle

so


Area of the floor
=L*W

where

L is the length side of the floor

W is the width side of the floor



L=100(3)/(4) ft\\\\ L=(100*4+3)/4\\\\ L=(403)/(4) ft



W=75(1)/(2) ft\\\\ W=(75*2+1)/2\\\\ W=(151)/(2) ft


Area of the floor
=(403)/(4) *(151)/(2)


Area of the floor
= (60,853)/(8)


Area of the floor=
7,606.625 ft²


therefore


the answer is

the area of the floor is
7,606.625 ft²
