The area of the entire Raya's apartment is about 920 square feet

The steps used to find the area of the entire Raya's apartment are presented as follows;

The percentage of the apartment represented by the 92 square feet the closets take up in Raya's apartment is 10 percent

Therefore;

10 percent of Raya's apartment = 92 square feet

Let A represent the area of Raya's apartment, we get;

10 percent of A = 92 square feet

(10/100) × A = 92

A = 92 × (100/10)

A = 920

The area of Raya's apartment is 920 square feet
