Draw a diagram to illustrate the problem as shown below.
The length of baseboard needed is AB + BC + CD + DE + FE.
Note that 30 in = 30/12 ft = 2.5 ft.
Because of the door opening,
AB + EF = 12 - 2.5 = 9.5 ft
Also,
BC = DE = 10 ft
CD = 12 ft.
The amount of baseboard needed is
AB + BC + CD + DE + FE
= (AB + EF) + BC + CD + DE
= 9.5 + 10 + 12 + 10
= 41.5 ft
Answer:
41.5 feet of baseboard.
