Lizzie and her wife need to paint the walls of their bedroom the room is 12 feet by 14 feet and it has a ceiling that is 10 feet high what is the area that they need to paint
To find the area that Lizzie and her wife need to paint, we need to calculate the total surface area of the walls in the bedroom.
The bedroom has four walls: two that are 12 feet long and two that are 14 feet long. Since the walls have a height of 10 feet, the total surface area of the walls can be calculated as follows:
First wall: 12 feet (length) * 10 feet (height) = 120 square feet
Second wall: 12 feet (length) * 10 feet (height) = 120 square feet
Third wall: 14 feet (length) * 10 feet (height) = 140 square feet
Fourth wall: 14 feet (length) * 10 feet (height) = 140 square feet
Adding up the areas of all four walls, we get:
120 square feet + 120 square feet + 140 square feet + 140 square feet = 520 square feet
Therefore, Lizzie and her wife need to paint a total area of 520 square feet.
