Area = length × width, so 8 × 10 = 80 square feet.

There are 12 inches in a foot, so 3.5 × 12 = 42 inches.
A customer needs to install baseboard trim around a rectangular room that measures 12 feet by 15 feet. How many linear feet of trim are needed (ignoring doorways)?
Answer: 54 linear feet
Perimeter = 2 × (length + width) = 2 × (12 + 15) = 2 × 27 = 54 linear feet.
A board measures 144 inches. How many feet is this?

A customer is buying lumber priced at $2.50 per linear foot. If they need 24 linear feet, what is the total cost before tax?
