To find the length of the room, you can use the formula for the area of a rectangle, which is:

\[
\text{Area} = \text{Length} \times \text{Width}
\]

In this case, you know the area (271.25 square feet) and the width (15.5 feet). You can rearrange the formula to solve for the length:

\[
\text{Length} = \frac{\text{Area}}{\text{Width}}
\]

Now substitute the values:

\[
\text{Length} = \frac{271.25 \text{ square feet}}{15.5 \text{ feet}} \approx 17.5 \text{ feet}
\]

So, the length of the room is approximately 17.5 feet.
