Multiply the lenght in feet by the width in feet 11x18=198 sq ft.

Height is not a factor in the square footage (only in volume).

Where you have 3 dimensions you're looking at volume not area.
From your figures you can obtain 3 areas: -
1... 18 x 11 = 198 square inches.
2....18 x 8 = 144 square inches.
3....11 x 8 = 88 square inches

The volume = 18 x 11 x 8 = 1584 cubic inches

length times width, so 18 times 11

Your answer is in cubic feet by the way; it's a volume
