The east room of the White House is 79 feet long by 36 feet wide what is the area and what is the perimeter of the east room

Hey there!

In area, you multiply the length times the width.

Length = 79 ft.
Width = 36 ft.

79 x 36 = 2,844
The area of the shape is 2,844.

To find perimeter, you add up all the sides. The way you were describing the shape, it sounds like a rectangle so. . .

79 + 79 = 158
36 + 36 = 72
158 + 72 = 230
The perimeter of the room is 230 feet.

Hope this helps you.
Have a great day!
