Answer 1

Answer:

$630.36\ ft^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

To find out the area of the sidewalk, multiply the length by the width of the sidewalk

The width of the sidewalk is equal to

$113.4\ ft-110\ ft=3.4\ ft$

or

$75.4\ ft-72\ ft=3.4\ ft$

The area is equal to

$113.4(3.4)+72(3.4)\\385.56+244.8\\630.36\ ft^2$
