Question

A floor is 5m long and 4m wide a rectangle carpet of width 1m is laid on the floor find the area which is not carpeted

Answer 1

Answer:

15m^2

Step-by-step explanation

floor-

length (L)- 5m

breadth (B)- 4m

rectangular carpet

width (b) - 1m

length (l)- 5m ( i am assuming that this is the length because it is not given in the question  but if the length is some other value you still can use the below formula... just substitute that value in place of 5)

Area which is not carpeted= area of floor- area of carpet

                                              = L×B - (l×b)

                                              = (5×4) - (5×1)

                                              = 20-5

                                              = 15m^2

Answer 2

area of floor =4m×5m=20m2
area of carpet=1m×1m=1m2
area un carpeted=20m2-1m2
=19m2
hope..it...helps...
