A large pavilion is made of 2.967×105 bricks. There are 6.9 bricks per square foot. How many square feet is the pavilion? Write the answer in scientific notation.

Answer 1

To find the number of square feet in the pavilion, we divide the total number of bricks by the number of bricks per square foot:

2.967×105 bricks / 6.9 bricks per square foot = 4.31×104 square feet

In scientific notation, the answer is 4.31×104 square feet.
