Answer 1

The store rectangular floor is 42 meters long and 39 meters wide

How many square meters of flooring do they need​?

Recall that the area of rectangular shape is given by

`A=W\cdot L`

Where L is the length and W is the width.

We are given that

Length = 42 meters

Width = 39 meters

So, the required area of flooring is

`\begin{gathered} A=W\cdot L \\ A=39\cdot42 \\ A=1638\: m^2 \end{gathered}`

Therefore, 1638 square meters of flooring is needed.
