Question #09443

1 Answer

Feb 14, 2018

#250# sq ft

Explanation:

#1 = 2/2#

#1/2 = 1/2#

#1 1/2 = 1 + 1/2#

#1 1/2 = 2/2 + 1/2#

#= 3/2#

#3/2a = 375#

#1/2a = 375/3#

#=125#

#1/2a = 125#

#2/2a = 250#

#2/2 = 1#

#1a = a#

#a = 250#

or, alternatively

#1 1/2a = 375#

#3a = 1 1/2a * 2#

#3a = 375 * 2#

#= 750#

#a = 750/3#

#=250#

both answers give an area of #250# sq ft.
