Question

A sheet of paper measure 50 cm by 30 cm . A strip 6 cm wide is cut from all around . find the area of remaining sheet and also the area of the strip cut out. step by step​

Answer 1

step by step explanation :

if strip of 6 CM is cut from all around then the new dimension of remaining sheet is

length = 50–6–6 = 38 CM

breadth= 30–6–6 = 18 CM

so the area of remaining sheet = 38×18= 684 square CM

and the area of strip = (50×30)–(38×18)

=1500–684 = 816square cm
