Answer 2

The answer is mopped.

Remove your shoes as I mopped that floor just now.

Explanation:

Mopped is the simple past tense form of the action verb mop.

In this case, the mopping action has already taken place. In such cases, when an action has already occurred, we use various forms of the past tense.

Since the action word remove is in simple present tense, the action word mop must be in the appropriate past tense.
