What is the floor area of the removal area in square feet?

• A. 4,000
• B. 5,000
• C. 6,000
• D. 7,000

Answer: (B)

Floor area is found by multiplying the length by the width, with the measurements in feet so the result is in square feet. For a rectangular removal area, you use the two dimensions and multiply them. If those dimensions produce 5,000 when you multiply, the floor area is 5,000 square feet. For example, 50 ft by 100 ft or 25 ft by 200 ft both give 5,000 ft². If the removal area weren’t a rectangle, you’d split it into rectangles, find each area, and sum them. The other numbers correspond to different dimension pairs that would yield different totals.
