$201.64$ $201.64$ f $t^{2}$ $t^2$ or $61.46$ $61.46$ $m^{2}$ $m^2$

As the bedroom is a square, the length and the width is the same.

Therefore,

Length is $14.2$ $14.2$ foot

Width is $14.2$ $14.2$ foot

The area of a square is $a^{2}$ $color(red)(a^2)$ where $a$ $color(red)a$ is the length of a side.

$a^{2} = 14.2 \times 14.2$ $color(red)(a^2)=14.2 xx 14.2$

Area = $201.64$ $201.64$ f $t^{2}$ $t^2$

We know $1$ $1$ foot = $0.3$ $0.3$ meters

Therefore, Area = $201.64 \times 0.3 m^{2}$ $201.64 xx 0.3 m^2$

Area = $61.46 m^{2}$ $61.46 m^2$
