Answer: 49.0 square meters

====================================================

Explanation:

We'll first need to find the radius of the rug using the circumference.

C = 2*pi*r

r = C/(2pi)

r = (24.8)/(2*3.14)

r = 3.949045 which is approximate.

Now we can find the area

A = pi*r^2

A = 3.14*(3.949045)^2

A = 48.968163 this is also approximate

Rounding to the nearest tenth gets to 49.0
