Question

survey of mathematics

Answer 1

There are two deficiencies here.(1) your square footage number is duplicated in the text. Let's ignore that.

(2) You did not actually ask a question (this occurs very frequently in student submissions!)

 

If you want to find out what the new space is, just multiply the 9842 sq ft by 1.45 to get the answer.

 

BTW: this new space represents a 45% increase over the prior space.

Answer 2

145% = 1.45

 

9842 x 1.45 = 14270.9
