Parking Area Formula
The following two example problems outline the steps and information needed to calculate the Parking Area.
PARK = LA * PR/100
- Where PARK is the Parking Area (ft^2)
- LA is the total lot area (ft^2)
- PR is the parking ratio (%)
To calculate a parking area, multiply the total lot area by the parking ratio.
How to Calculate Parking Area?
The following example problems outline how to calculate Parking Area.
Example Problem #1:
- First, determine the total lot area (ft^2).
- The total lot area (ft^2) is given as: 1,000.
- Next, determine the parking ratio (%).
- The parking ratio (%) is provided as: 20.
- Finally, calculate the Parking Area using the equation above:
PARK = LA * PR/100
The values provided above are inserted into the equation below and computed.
PARK = 1000 * 20/100 = 200.00 (ft^2)
Example Problem #2:
For this problem, the variables required are provided below:
total lot area (ft^2) = 2,000
parking ratio (%) = 50
Test your knowledge using the equation and check your answer with the calculator..
PARK = LA * PR/100 = ?
