The answer is:  [A]:  " 120 ft² " .
_______________________________________________________
Explanation:
_______________________________________________________
Set up a ratio as a fraction:
_______________________________________________________

       8/3 = 320/x ;
_______________________________________________________
Cross-multiply:
_____________________________________________________

8x = 3 * 320  ;

8x = 960 ;

Divide each side of the equation by "8" ;
 to isolate "x" on one side of the equation ; and to solve for "x" ;
______________________________________________________
   8x / 8  =  960 / 8 ;

to get:  x = 120 .

The answer is:  [A]:  " 120 ft² " .

36 all together.
22 first
14 second
8 random chosen

A) all first shift:
One is pulled 22/36
Second is pulled 21/35
Third is pulled 20/34
Fourth 19/33
Fifth 18/32
Sixth 17/31
Seventh 16/30
Eighth 15/29

Multiply all those together

Second 13/35
Third 12/34
Fourth 11/33
Fifth 10/32
Sixth 9/31
Seventh 8/30
Eighth 7/29

Multiply all those together
Probability of all second shift is 0.000099238805645
(That means it's likely to see 100x more picks of all first shift workers before you see this once.. lol)

C) 22/36
21/35
20/34
19/33
18/32

Multiply..
Probability.. 0.038306451612903


D) 14/36
13/35
12/34
11/33

X... p=0.016993464052288


Probably not correct, haven't done probability in years.
