Mrs. Phillips needs to buy 8 packs of floor boards

In contrast to a square, a rectangle is a planar figure having four equal neighboring sides, four straight sides, and four right angles. An enclosed 2-D form called a rectangle has four sides, four corners, and four right angles (90°). A rectangle has equal and parallel opposing sides. A rectangle has two dimensionslength and width—because it is a two-dimensional form. The rectangle's longer side is its length, while its shorter side is its breadth.

As per the figure attached Mrs. Phillips floor plan can divided into two rectangles

The area of rectangle is as follow:

Area = length(l) x Width(w)

Area of part 1 will be:

A = 6 x 2 = 12 m²

Area of part 2 will be :

a = 3 x 2 = 6 m²

Total area of floor = A + a

Total area of floor = 12 + 6

Total area of floor = 18 m²

Given one pack of floor boards will cover 2.5 m².

So total pack of floor block needed will be as follow:

Total pack of floor block = Total area of floor/Area covered by one pack of floor boards

Total pack of floor block = 18/2.5

Total pack of floor block = 7.2 packs ≈ 8 packs

Hence Mrs. Phillips needs to buy 8 packs of floor boards
