Answer:

Joesph needs to be 331 feet of flooring to cover all sides except the floor.

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this question, you need to find the areas of the sides and the roof.

Side (left and right): 12 feet long multipled by 6.5 feet high. 12*6.5=78 ft^2. Multiply this by 2 to get the combined areas of both the left and right side. 156 ft ^2


Side (back and front): 7 feet wide by 6.5 feet high. 7*6.5=45.5 ft^2. Multiply this by two to get the combined areas of the back and the front sides. 91 ft^2

Roof: 7 feet wide multiplied by 12 feet long. 7*12=84 ft^2

84+91+156=331 ft^2

Answer:

331 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a rectangle = width × height

Given:

  • base width = 7 ft
  • base length = 12 ft
  • height = 6.5 ft

Surface area (minus the floor):

= 2(7 × 6.5)  + 2(12 × 6.5) + (7 × 12)

= 91 + 156 + 84

= 331 ft²
