Amedical office is replacing their existing flooring with carpeting in the waiting and office areas and laminate flooring in the patient exam rooms. if each of the 10 exam rooms is 10 feet by 10 feet, the waiting area is 20 feet by 15 feet, and the office area is 25 by 20 feet, how many total square feet of flooring will they be replacing?

So first, you would multiply 10 times 10 to get 100 square feet. And since there are 10 exam rooms, you multiply 100 to 10 and you would get 1000. Then to calculate the waiting area, you multiply 20 times 15 to get 300 square feet. Then the office area would be 25 times 20 which is 500. So you would add up 1000+300+500. The answer comes out as 1800 square feet. Hope this helped! Good luck!
