(1/2 5.000 x 3.667 + 4.667 x 10 + 2.083 x 3.083 + 4.667 x 10)
= 451.224 - 99.762 = 351.462

ROOM 7: (22.750 x 19.500) minus (1.750 x 2.667 + 1.667 x 2.333)
= 443.625 - 8.556 = 435.069

TOTAL INDOOR SPACE: 886.531 sq. ft. divided by 35 = 22 children

There is a labeled women's rest room that has two stalls with a toilet in each stall and two sinks.
