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

Number of square feet = Total number of bricks / Bricks per square foot

Number of square feet = 2.967×10^5 / 6.9

Number of square feet = 4.3×10^4

Therefore, the answer is 4.3×10^4.
