Question

A carpet is placed in a room living a border of 1 m wide all around the room if the room is 14m long and 10 m wide find the area undercover by carpet

Answer 1

Answer:117m

Step-by-step explanation:

1m is the border left around the room

room width is 10m

length is 14m

so we have to find the area of the undercover carpet so we subtract 1m of the border around the room from 14m which gives us 13m and do the same with 10m which gives us 9m. Now we have to find the area of the carpet which is 13m multiply by 9m which gives us an area of 117m squared
