How to find the area of a figure?

The total square footage of your house is 1200 square feet.

He wants to put new carpet in all rooms except for  the kitchen, dining room and bathroom.

Therefore,

total area = 1200 ft²

Area of the other rooms with no carpet  = (10 × 12) + (11 × 13) + (6 × 8)

Area of the other rooms with no carpet  = 120 + 143 + 48

Area of the other rooms with no carpet  = 311 ft²

Hence, the number of square feet for the house = 1200 - 311 = 889 ft²
