Mr.  Tiddlebug  is  redesigning  his  home,  and  needs  your  
help!    He  needs  a  new  floor  plan  for  a  house  that  is  at  least  
400  square  feet.      He  would  like  it  to  be  one  story,  because  
his  dog  is  very  old  and  has  trouble  with  stairs.    The  rooms  
he  would  like  are:  
 
1) Bathroom  
2) Living  Room  
3) Bedroom  1  
4) Bedroom  2  
5) Kitchen  
6) Laundry  Room  
 
He  would  also  like  a  closet  in  each  of  the  bedrooms,  as  well  as  one  near  the  front  
door.      
 
Use  your  mathematical  know-­‐how  to  design  a  floor  plan  that  includes  all  of  the  
rooms  Mr.  Tiddlebug  desires.    Include  the  square  feet  for  each  room  by  finding  the  
area  using  multiplication.    
 
Each  square  on  the  grid  is  one  square  foot.    GOOD  LUCK!
