Davonte is trying to figure out how much space his art collection takes up. He measures his paintings and finds he has three square 6-foot by 6-foot paintings, four small 2-foot by 3-foot paintings, and one large 10-foot by 15-foot painting. How many square feet does his collection take up? Let's be accurate as possible.

His square paintings take up 36 square feet each because 6 x 6 = 36. His small paintings take 6 square feet each because 2 x 3 = 6. His large painting takes up 150 square feet because 10 x 15 = 150. Combined, his square paintings take up 108 square feet because 3 x 36 = 108. Combined, his small paintings take up 24 square feet because 4 x 6 = 24. In total, his paintings take up 282 square feet because 150 + 108 + 24 = 282.
The answer: 282.
