How many square feet is 4 × 70 ft?

Answer

A rectangle of 4 × 70 ft covers
280 square feet

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:

4 ft × 70 ft

=

4 × 70

=

280 square feet

4 × 70 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 280 square feet
Square meters 26.01 m²
Square yards 31.11 yd²
Perimeter 148 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.
