Answer :

Demon
you equation will be
 2550 + (2550 X 8%)
2550 + (2550 X 0.08)
2550 + 204
= 2754

Answer:

The square footage will be 2754 square feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The original living space in the home = 2,550 square feet,

Total added space = 8 % of the original space

[tex]=8\%\text{ of } 2550[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{8\times 2550}{100}[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{20400}{100}=204\text{ square ft}[/tex]

Thus, the living space in the home or square footage of their home, after addition = The original living space + Total added space

= 2,550 + 204

= 2,754 square feet.
