Question 7 Predominant material in the floor of the dwelling

Mark only one box keeping in mind that:

a) This question refers to the material of the majority of the floors of the dwelling.
b) You shouldn't look only at the material of the floor in the living room because in some dwellings this floor is different than the material of the rest of the rooms.

In these cases the predominant material in the majority of the rooms will be written down.
