The total area of the living room and den can be calculated by adding the individual areas of the two rooms.

Living Room area = 8 ft x 8 ft = 64 sq ft
Den area = 3 ft x 8 ft = 24 sq ft

Total area = 64 sq ft + 24 sq ft = 88 sq ft

Therefore, the correct answer is not provided in the options provided. The total area is 88 sq ft.
