1 answer

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

Given:
Total number of bricks = 2.967 * 10^5
Number of bricks per square foot = 6.9

The number of square feet is calculated as:
Number of square feet = Total number of bricks / Number of bricks per square foot

Number of square feet = (2.967 * 10^5) / 6.9
Number of square feet = 4.3 * 10^4

Therefore, the pavilion is approximately 4.3 * 10^4 square feet.
