How many square feet is 20 × 21 ft?

Answer

A rectangle of 20 × 21 ft covers
420 square feet

Any rectangle 20 ft wide and 21 ft long covers 420 square feet. The order of the sides makes no difference — 20 × 21 and 21 × 20 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:

20 ft × 21 ft

=

20 × 21

=

420 square feet

20 × 21 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 420 square feet
Square meters 39.02 m²
Square yards 46.67 yd²
Perimeter 82 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.
