7 ft to the power of 2

19 ft to the power of 2

12 ft to the power of 2

140 ft to the power of 2

Verified Answer :

Length of the actual bathroom = 20 x 2 inches = 40 inches = 10/3 ft
Width of the actual bathroom = 20 x 3.5 inches = 70 inches = 35/6 ft
Area of the actual bathroom = length x width = 10/3 x 35/6 = 19 square ft.
