Question

The volume inside a rectangular storage room is 2,097 cubic feet. The room is 9 feet high. Find the area of

the floor.

Answer 1

The area of the floor is 233ft²

Explanation:

To calculate the area of the base from a rectangular prism we have to use the following formula:

a = area

v = volume = 2,097 ft³

h = height = 9 ft

v = a * h

we clear the a of the formula and we have

a = v / h

replace the values

a = 2,097 ft³ / 9ft

a = 233 ft²

The area of the floor is 233ft²
