Alex is adding square-foot tiles on the floor in his laundry room. If the space he wants to fill is 7 feet long and 6 feet wide, how many square-foot tiles will he need to fill the area?

1 answer

To find the total square footage of the space he wants to fill, Alex needs to multiply the length by the width:

7 feet x 6 feet = 42 square feet

Therefore, Alex will need 42 square-foot tiles to fill the area.
