Answer:

48000

6÷2= 3 in.

3×100= 300 in.

3.2÷2=1.6 in.

1.6×100= 160 in.

A= 160×300= 4800 in.

What is surface area?

The surface area of any shape is the area of the shape that is faced or the Surface area is the amount of area covering the exterior of a 3D shape.

Here,

Dr. Gordon marks a 6 in. -by-3.2 in
Length = 6 in
Length= 300 ft (since 2 in = 100 ft)

Width = 3.2 in
Width  = 160 ft

Now the required area of the section is = length x width
                                                                  = 300 * 160
                                                                   = 48000 feet²
