What is the correct formula I use to get the surface area of a room, which measures 29'4", 10'6", and 9'. I came up with 191,952 sq in. Is this correct
------------------
Is that for the floor area? Or for all 6 sides?
3 dims --> 6 sides
29'4" = 352 in
10'6" = 126 in
9' = 108 in
----
Area = 2*(352*108 + 352*126 + 126*108)
Area = 191952 sq in
--------------
191952 sq in/144 sq in/sq ft = 1333 sq ft
