Yes. The length of a room times width of a room equals the area of the room. For instance, a room measuring 24 feet by 12 feet equals 288 square feet. (24 times 12 equals 288, which is the square feet)

Does the answer to circumference have squared on it?

No. Circumference is just a length. Lengths and distances don't use 'squared' units.Length is how far you have to go to get from one place to another.Areas use squared units, like the area of a big piece of paper, or your front yard,or the floor in your bedroom. Area is how much space there is on something ...like space that you might have to paint.Volumes use cubed units, like the volume of a milk jug, or a big cardboard carton,or the gas tank in your car. Volume is how much space there is inside of something ...like space that you could keep water in.


How do you find the surface area of a bubble?

What kind of object would square feet be used to measure?

An area and by someone who cannot or will not use metric units. Floor space of a room, or carpet, side of a wall, a poster, a playing field, garden are some examples.


Would you need to use area or volume to find the amount of carpet for your floor?

If your floor is a simple rectangle, you would multiply length times width and get the area. That's how much carpet is needed to cover it. Make sure that you have your measurements converted to just feet when you multiply them. For example, if it is 10 feet, 8 inches long, that would be 10 8/12 feet long. If your floor is not just a simple rectangle, divide a diagram of it up into simple rectangles (or other polygons) that you can find the area of, and then add all of their areas together.


How do you find a relationship in width and area?

To find the relationship in width and area you can use the formula area/length = width. To find the area of a room you multiple the length by the width.
