How many square feet is 10 × 48 ft?

Answer

A rectangle of 10 × 48 ft covers
480 square feet

Any rectangle 10 ft wide and 48 ft long covers 480 square feet. The order of the sides makes no difference — 10 × 48 and 48 × 10 are the same area.

How the Square Footage Is Calculated

Square feet = width (ft) × length (ft)

Area is a product, not a sum: a rectangle holds as many one-foot squares as its width multiplied by its length. Put this rectangle into it:

10 ft × 48 ft

=

10 × 48

=

480 square feet

10 × 48 ft in Other Units

The same rectangle expressed the other common ways. The perimeter is the figure to use for skirting, edging or fencing — and it is what tells this rectangle apart from other sizes with the same area.

Square feet 480 square feet
Square meters 44.59 m²
Square yards 53.33 yd²
Perimeter 116 ft
Note: this is floor area. Wall area is height × length for each wall, and a room that is not a plain rectangle has to be split into rectangles first and added up.
