\n" ); document.write( "given: the poo is\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"16ft\" WIDE \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"+8ft\" LONG \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"4ft\" DEEP \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "the surface area of the pool bottom: multiply the length by the width\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"16ft%2A8ft=128ft%5E2\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "the surface area of the pool walls: for rectangular pools, add the length and width, and multiply by twice the depth\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"%2816ft%2B8ft%29%2A2%2A4ft=24ft%2A8ft=192ft%5E2\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Add the surface area of the pool bottom and the surface area of the pool walls. This will give you the total pool area in square feet.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"128ft%5E2%2B192ft%5E2=320ft%5E2\"...your answer
