rodikova [14]

Answer: the total square footage is

850 ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

The kitchen is 10 feet by 15 feet. This means that the volume of the kitchen would be

10 × 15 = 150 ft³

The living/dining combo is 20 feet by 25 feet. This means that the volume of the living/dining combo would be

20 × 25 = 500 ft³

The office and sunroom are each 10 feet by 10 feet. This means that the volume of the office would be

10 × 10 = 100 ft³

Also, the volume of the sunroom would be

10 × 10 = 100 ft³

Therefore, the total square footage is

150 + 500 + 100 + 100 = 850 ft³
