Answer:

32,000 square feet gross area and 28,750 square feet net area

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a rectangular site measures 125 feet (frontage) by 256 feet (depth), of which 26 feet is in the public right of way. We have to find the  the gross and net site area.

As, 26 feet width is in the public right of way which excluded in the net area but included in gross area.

For gross area,

Length=125 feet

Width=256 feet

Area=Length\times width=125\times 256=32000 square feet

For net area,

Length=125 feet

Width=256-26=230 feet

Area=Length\times width=125\times 230=28750 square feet

Hence, last option is correct.

The answer is:  32,000 square feet gross area and 28,750 square feet net area
