A retail shop is replacing their flooring with laminate wood. The floor plan is shown below. Determine the total square feet of laminate wood needed to complete the job.

===========================================================

Explanation:

As shown in the diagram below, I've drawn a blue horizontal line to split the figure into two rectangles (smaller one up top, larger down below).

The smaller rectangle up top is 25 ft by 8 ft, giving an area of 25*8 = 200 sq ft.

The larger rectangle down below is 35 ft by 25 ft so we have an area of 35*25 = 875 sq ft.

The total area is 200+875 = 1075 square feet

Notes:

well

44-3-3-3=35

35+4+4+4+4=51

so the ansewr would be 51 degreesat 7: 00
