Question

An adult has a total of about 21.4 square feet (ft2) of skin. Use the fact that 1 m is approximately equal to 3.281 feet to convert this measurement to square meters (m2).

Answer 1

1.99m²

Explanation:

From the above question

1 ft = 3.281 m

1 ft² = (3.281 m)²

Converting 21.4 ft² to m²

1 ft² = (3.281 m)²

21.4 ft² = xm²

x m² = 21.4 ft²/ (3.281 m)²

x m² = 1.9879310292 m²

Approximately :

21.4 ft² = 1.99m²
