16 cans

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of a rectangular wooden floor = 51 feet

Breadth of a rectangular wooden floor = 32 feet

Area of a rectangular wooden floor = L * B

Area of a rectangular wooden floor=51*32

Area = 1632 feet sq.

Area cover by each can = 102 square feet

Number of cans required = Total area / Area required by each can

Number of cans required = 1632 / 102

Number of cans required = 16 cans

Hence, the correct answer is 16 cans
