Answer: 0.43ft²
Explanation:
You didn't really specify part A but In assuming that the question you posted is part A. Anyways in this case, area will be calculated by multiplying the length by the width.
Since the piece of wood has a length that is 2.45 feet and width that is 2.097 inches, then the area will be:
= 2.45 × 0.17475
= 0.4281375 ft²
= 0.43ft² to nearest hundredths
Note 1 foot = 12 inches
Therefore, 2.097 inches = 2.097/12 = 0.17475 feet
