Question 1089838: Michelle is measuring the dimensions of her living room so she can install new flooring. She measures the length at 4√12 feet with her radical tape measure, and then measures the width at 3√8 feet.
2. Michelle decided she only wants to cover 3⁄4 of the room in the new flooring. Determine the area of flooring she will need to cover 3⁄4 of the room. Leave your answer as a simplified radical expression and include units. Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Assuming a rectangle, the area is the product is 12 * sqrt(96)
sqrt (96)=sqrt(16)*sqrt(6)
Area is 48*sqrt (6) ft^2
3/4 of it is 36*sqrt(6) ft^2.
