You'll have to do better than that.

What does "floor = 4 metres" mean? Is this the length that is asked for later? That makes no sense. Maybe it should say "total floor area = 4 metres^2", but then the question still makes no sense. There is an answer for the length and "largest" has no meaning.

What is the EXACT wording of the problem?

Is this a question or an answer?

how much would it cost t civer the whole floor?

Is this related to (1), or is this a separate exercise?

Please reply with clarification. Thank you.
