Under the housing code, how many square feet are required for each additional occupant aged 12 or older?

• A. 50
• B. 60
• C. 100
• D. 120

Answer: (C)

The main idea being tested is the minimum living area required per occupant in housing code. For each additional occupant aged 12 or older, the space required is 100 square feet of living area. This standard helps ensure there is enough room for movement, sleeping, and basic activities, and it supports safe egress and habitability by preventing overcrowding. The other options don’t fit this particular age group; they either reflect space requirements for younger children or are simply not the standard used for occupants 12 or older.
