If i have a backyard that is 42ft x 34ft x12ft x 8ft how do i figure out the square feet in total?


Question:

Answers:
It's impossible to tell from the figures you gave.

What you need to do is draw it out on a piece of paper and take measurements for each side, writing them down on your makeshift map.

Then section it up into smaller squares and rectangles making it easier to do simple math to find your answer.

For example, I'll assume the figures you gave in your question to mean you have a backyard that is 42 feet long by 34 feet wide and there is a small area adjacent to it that is 12 feet by 8 feet.

If that's the case, multiply 42 times 34 (1428), then multiply 12 times 8 (96). Take those results and add them together (1524).

So in this case your total square feet would be 1524. But since I don't know for sure how you arrived at your measurements or what the shape of your backyard is, that may not be the correct answer.


Add those numbers together, and call it your area. The square root of that should give you approximate square footage

1524....42X34 +12X8
anytime u need square feet
you multiply length(ft) X width(ft)

if you ever need cubic feet
u multiply length(ft) X width(ft) X height(ft)
