Looking at the board game “Grab a Room!”, we can see that some rooms are highlighted in yellow. These appear to be special or selected rooms — perhaps they’re the ones you’ve “grabbed” or need to focus on.
Let’s list all the yellow-highlighted rooms and their dimensions:
1. 2 X 9 → area = 2 × 9 = 18
2. 9 X 3 → area = 9 × 3 = 27
3. 8 X 6 → wait, this is NOT yellow — it’s white. Let me double-check.
Actually, looking again:
The yellow rooms are:
- Top middle: 2 X 9
- Bottom left center: 9 X 3
- Bottom middle-right: 8 X 3
- Bottom far right: 12 X 3
Wait — let’s go row by row carefully.
Row 1 (top): no yellow rooms except maybe the start squares? But those are colored differently (orange, green, blue, gray) — not yellow.
Row 2: no yellow.
Row 3:
- Leftmost room has an image (kitchen?) — not yellow.
- Then: 5X6, 7X8, then YELLOW: 2X9, then 6X3, 9X9, then another room with image (playroom?) — not yellow.
Row 4:
- First room: 9X3 → YELLOW
- Then 8X6 → white
- Then 4X4 → white
- Then 8X3 → YELLOW
- Then 12X3 → YELLOW
- Then last room: playroom image — not yellow
Row 5:
- No yellow — all white or images
Row 6:
- Start square (blue), then 7X8, 9X9, 5X3, then bedroom image, then 4X5, 5X5, start (gray) — no yellow
So the yellow rooms are:
✔ 2 X 9
✔ 9 X 3
✔ 8 X 3
✔ 12 X 3
Now calculate each area:
1. 2 × 9 = 18
2. 9 × 3 = 27
3. 8 × 3 = 24
4. 12 × 3 = 36
Now add them up:
18 + 27 = 45
45 + 24 = 69
69 + 36 = 105
Total area of all yellow rooms = 105 square units.
Final Answer:
105
