Question

8. A floor is 7 m long and 6 m wide. A square carpet
4 m is laid down on the floor. Find the area of the
floor that is not carpeted.​

Answer 1

Answer:

area of floor= 7×6=42m sq

area of the carpet=4×4=16m sq

area of the floor that is not carpeted=42-16=26 m sq

Answer 2

Answer:

Given length of floor = 7m

Width of the floor = 6m

Total area of the floor = length × width

= 7m × 6m = 42m2

Area of the square carpet = length × width = 4 × 4 = 16m2

So, 16 sq. m of the floor is covered with carpet.

so area of the floor that is not carpeted = 42 - 16

= 26m2.......Answer
