Answer:

(149625π) / 1512

Explanation:

Area of Sector = (θ/360) * π * r^2

Where θ is the central angle of the sector, π is the value of pi, and r is the radius of the sector

Given:

θ = 299 degrees

π = 3 1/7

r = 15 m

1. Convert the angle θ to radians by multiplying it by (π/180)

θ = 299 degrees * (π/180) = (299π/180) radians

2. Substitute the values into the formula

Area of Sector = ((299π/180)/360) * (3 1/7) * (15^2)

3. Simplify the expression

Area of Sector = (299π/64800) * (22/7) * 225

4. Multiply the fractions and simplify

Area of Sector = (299 * 22 * 225 * π) / (64800 * 7)

Final Answer:

Area of Sector = (149625π) / 1512
