The rectangular floor area that are required for the parking of the bicycles is
determined by considering the following:
Each bicycle is 180 cm long and 45 cm wide.
An additional space of 0,5 m2 per bicycle is required for free movement around
the stands.
Use the information above to answer the questions that follow.
3.1.1 Calculate, in m2, the area of 1 bicycle.
You may use the formula: Area of a bicycle = length × width (3)
3.1.2 The total floor area required for the 127 bicycles is 166,37 m2.
Verify, showing ALL calculations, how the floor area was determined. (4)
