Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]Base\ Area = 93ft^2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Volume = 279ft^3[/tex]

[tex]Height =3ft[/tex]

Required

The base area

Volume is calculated as:

[tex]Volume = Base\ Area * Height[/tex]

This gives:

[tex]279= Base\ Area * 3[/tex]

Make Base Area the subject

[tex]Base\ Area = \frac{279}{3}[/tex]

[tex]Base\ Area = 93ft^2[/tex]
