Answer 1

The total area of the hotel lobby floor is 395 square feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the total area of the hotel lobby floor, we need to calculate the area of each rectangle and then add them together.

Rectangle 1: Length = 12 ft, Width = 7 ft

Area = Length x Width = 12 ft x 7 ft = 84 square feet

Rectangle 2: Length = 14 ft, Width = 12 ft

Area = Length x Width = 14 ft x 12 ft = 168 square feet

Rectangle 3: Length = 13 ft, Width = 11 ft

Area = Length x Width = 13 ft x 11 ft = 143 square feet

Total Area = 84 square feet + 168 square feet + 143 square feet = 395 square feet.
