The area = 313.612 cm²

Further explanation

Force (F) can cause objects to move

While pressure (P)is the force per unit area

[tex]\tt P=\dfrac{F}{A}[/tex]

weight=force=105 pounds(lb)⇒english units

pressure = 2.16 lb/in²

Thea are (A)

[tex]\tt A=\dfrac{F}{P}=\dfrac{105}{2.16}=48.61~in^2\\\\1~in^2=6,4516~cm^2\\\\48.61~in^2=313,612~cm^2[/tex]
