Answer:
192 square feet is the total area of both rooms.
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Key skills needed here: Rectangle Area, Operations</u>
1) She has 2 identical rooms and each one measures 8 ft. x 12 ft.
2) Most rooms are rectangles, so this one is one too.
3) The area of a rectangle is L x W, with L being the length and W being the width (check my image to learn more)
4) Now you can use the formula to find the area of one room and the multiply it by 2 since there are 2 rooms.
---->> A = L X W = 8 x 12 = 96
Each room is 96 square feet.
96 X 2 = 192
This means the total area is 192 square feet.
