To find the area of Elain's bedroom in square feet, we'll use repeated addition based on the given information that each square unit represents 5 square feet.
First, we need to know the number of square units that make up Elain's bedroom.
Let's assume that Elain's bedroom can be represented by a rectangular shape with dimensions of 7 square units wide and 9 square units long.
To find the area, we'll add the number of square units in each row for the entire length of the room.
For each row, we add the number of square units (7) horizontally:
7 + 7 + 7 + 7 + 7 + 7 + 7 + 7 + 7 = 63 square units
Since each square unit represents 5 square feet, we can now calculate the area in square feet by multiplying the number of square units by the conversion factor:
63 square units * 5 square feet/square unit = 315 square feet
Therefore, the area of Elain's bedroom is 315 square feet.
