Question

What is the floor area of your dorm room if it measures 12 ft x 19 ft?

Answer 1

Answer:  The required floor area of the room is 228 sq. ft.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to find the floor area of a room if it measures 12 ft x 19 ft.

We know that

the floor of a room is always rectangular in shape and the area of a rectangle with length l units and width w units is given by

$A=lw.$

For the given floor, l = 12 ft and w = 19 ft.

Therefore, the floor area of the room is given by

$A=lw=12\times19=228~\textup{sq. ft}.$

Thus, the required floor area of the room is 228 sq. ft.

Answer 2

228 ft²

To find the area of any rectangular space, you multiply its length by its width. In this case, you multiply together 12 and 19 to get 228.
