Studdy Solution

STEP 1

1. The hallway is rectangular in shape.
2. The width of the hallway is 4 4 feet.
3. The length of the hallway is 1912 \frac{191}{2} feet.

STEP 2

1. Recall the formula for the area of a rectangle.
2. Substitute the given values.
3. Calculate the area.

STEP 3

Recall the formula for the area of a rectangle:
A=Width×Length A = \text{Width} \times \text{Length}

STEP 4

Substitute the given values into the formula:
A=4 ft×1912 ft A = 4 \text{ ft} \times \frac{191}{2} \text{ ft}

STEP 5

Calculate the product:
A=4×1912 A = 4 \times \frac{191}{2} =4×1912 = \frac{4 \times 191}{2} =7642 = \frac{764}{2} =382 ft2 = 382 \text{ ft}^2
The area of the hallway is:
382 ft2 \boxed{382 \text{ ft}^2}
