Question

6. A square-shaped room has length of 10 m. If a square shape portion of 8 m side is carpeted at the rate of
3120 per sq. m, find the cost of carpeting. Also find the area of the room which is not carpeted.
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Area of room =length×breadth

=10×8 = 80m^2

Area of carpet =s×s=8×8=64m

Therefore, the area of the floor which is not carpeted = 80−64= 16m^2
