length times width. just like the other answers said.
remember: when measuring for tile, always buy 5-10% more tile than the area you are tiling, because you will lose tile to cutting, breaking, mistakes, etc.

Height(in inches) times width(in inches) divide by 144 equals square footage.

Measure the length and the width of the area you want for your backsplash and then multiply them. eg.; 10ft. by 2ft. = 20 sq. ft.

Measure length and width. Convert to feet. Multiply these two numbers. This is your square footage. Always add on 10% at least, for a buffer (extra, just in case), and for waste. Good luck. I just had a granite backsplash installed. It looks great. It's a good thing I added on a buffer, because I came very close to the end of my tiles!
