To calculate square footage, you follow these steps:
Measure the Length and Width: For rectangular or square areas, you’ll need to measure the length and width in feet.
Multiply the Length by the Width: Once you have both measurements, multiply them together. The formula looks like this:
Square Footage=Length×WidthSquare Footage=Length×WidthFor example, if a room is 10 feet long and 12 feet wide, the calculation would be:
10 feet×12 feet=120 square feet10feet×12feet=120square feet
