Convert all measurements inches.
L=8' 3"=8%2A12%2B3=96%2B3=99
W=5' 3"=5%2A12%2B3=60%2B3=63
H=10' 0"=10%2A12=120
You have 4 walls, ceiling, and floor.
Awall=2%2ALH%2B2%2AWH
Aceiling=Afloor=LW
SA=2LH%2B2WH%2B2LW=2%28LH%2BWH%2BLW%29=2%2899%28120%29%2B63%28120%29%2B99%2863%29%29
SA=2%2811880%2B7560%2B6237%29
SA=2%2825677%29
SA=51354 sq.in.
SA=356.625 sq. ft.
