A building has 217 floors. Each floor has 505 square feet of floor space.

What is the total amount of floor space in the building?

1 answer

To find the total amount of floor space in the building, you can multiply the number of floors by the floor space per floor.

Given:

  • Number of floors = 217
  • Floor space per floor = 505 square feet

The calculation is as follows:

\[ \text{Total floor space} = \text{Number of floors} \times \text{Floor space per floor} \] \[ \text{Total floor space} = 217 \times 505 \]

Now, let's perform the multiplication:

\[ 217 \times 505 = 109885 \]

Therefore, the total amount of floor space in the building is 109,885 square feet.
