Answer:

area of the floor =702 feet²

Explanation:

To solve this, we need to take note that;

volume = l × b×h

Area = l× b

where l = length of the rectangular storage room

b = breadth of the rectangular storage room

h = height of the rectangular storage room

Taking a look at the two formulas above

volume = area × height -----------------------------------------(1)

From the question given;

volume = 2106 feet³

height = 3 feet

We can now insert our values into (1)

2106 = area × 3

Divide both-side of the equation by 3

2106/3 = area × 3/3

702 = area

area of the floor =702 feet²

Answer:

720 square feet

Explanation:

Given :

  • The volume : 2,106 cubic feet
  • The height: 3 feet

As we know that, the formula to find the volume of a rectangular prism is:

Volume = the area of the base * the height

<=> the area of the base = Volume / the height

In this question,

The area of the base = 2,106 / 3 = 720 square feet

Hope it will find you well.
