Perimeter of a room=(length + width)*2=(14+16)*2=60(ft) Area of walls& of& a single room=perimeter*height=60*10=600(sq.ft ). Area& of ceiling& of a single room=length*width=14*16=224 (sq.ft). Area for painting in a single room= Area of walls + Area of a ceiling=600+224=824(sq.ft). Total area in a motel for painting 148 rooms = 824*148=121952 (sq.ft). Answer: 121952 (sq.ft).
