Answer 2

• 48 pieces
• 1536 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

The 24' dimension is 6 times the 4' dimension of a 4×8 ft piece of plywood. The 64' dimension is 8 times the 8' dimension of a 4×8 ft piece of plywood.

Hence, it will take 6×8 = 48 pieces of plywood to cover the floor.

The area of the floor is the product of its dimensions:

24' × 64' = 1536 ft²
