Painting Area Calculator

Formula

The formula to calculate the painting area is:

\[ PA = WW \times WH \]

Where:

\(PA\) is the Painting Area (ft²)
\(WW\) is the wall width (ft)
\(WH\) is the wall height (ft)

What is Painting Area?

The painting area is the total surface area that needs to be painted. It is calculated by multiplying the width of the wall by its height. This measurement helps in estimating the amount of paint required for a project.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Wall Width (WW) = 12 ft
Wall Height (WH) = 8 ft

Using the formula to calculate the painting area (PA):

\[ PA = WW \times WH = 12 \times 8 = 96 \text{ ft²} \]

The Painting Area (PA) is 96 ft².
