Answer:
908 feet²
Step-by-step explanation:
To paint walls, we will be looking for surface area.
Since this is a room and we have three measurements, we can assume there will be the floor, the ceiling, and four walls. This means we will be looking for 6 sides in total.
-> See attached for a diagram I made of the sides we need
-> Keep in mind opposite pairs of walls will be the same, and the floor and ceiling will be the same.
We end up with the following sides:
11 * 12
11 * 12
11 * 14
11 * 14
12 * 14
12 * 14
We can simplify this to the following:
(2(11 * 12)) + (2(11 * 14) + (2(12 * 14) = 908 feet²
908 feet² must be covered with paint.
