    306.12N/m^2

    Explanation:

    Mass = 30 kg

    g = 9.8m/s2

    F = mg

    F = 30 x 9.8

    F = 294N

    L = 0.98m

    Since the stilts is square, then the area is L^2

    A = L^2

    A = 0.98^2

    A = 0.9604m^2

    P = ?

    P = F/A

    P = 294/0.9604

    P = 306.12N/m^2

    The pressure exerted by the man is 306.12N/m^2
