Question

A floor is 12 m long and 8 m wide. A square carpet of sides 6 m is laid on the floor. Find the area of the floor that is not carpeted.​

Answer 1

Answer:

60 m$^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

area of the floor(rectangle) =  l x b

                           =  12 x 8

                           =  96

area of carpet (square) = side x side

                                      = 6 x 6

                                      = 36

the area which is not carpeted = 96-36

                                                   = 60 m${2}$
