How many square feet is 3 × 26 ft?

Answer

A rectangle of 3 × 26 ft covers

78 square feet

Any rectangle 3 ft wide and 26 ft long covers 78 square feet. The order of the sides makes no difference — 3 × 26 and 26 × 3 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:

3 ft × 26 ft

=

3 × 26

=

78 square feet

3 × 26 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	78 square feet
Square meters	7.25 m²
Square yards	8.67 yd²
Perimeter	58 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.
