Is area the same as surface area?

No, it is not

Step-by-step explanation:

AREA DEFINITION:  Area is 2-dimensional: it has a length and a width. Area is measured in square units such as square inches, square feet or square meters. To find the area of a rectangle, multiply the length by the width.

SURFACE AREA DEFINITION: The surface area is the sum of the areas of all six sides. To find the area of adjacent sides (Width x Height) x 2 sides. Find the area of ends (Length x Width) x 2 ends. Add the three areas together to find the surface area.

it will cost dollar $540

the living room is 3 which means if we divide 325/3 then we get $108

therefore if 1part of the living room cost $108 and 3 costed $325

then total 5part of the room will cost 5*108 which gives $540
