Answers
Area of the floor that is not carpeted is 8m².
Given :
Side of the Square carpet = 5 m
Length of the Rectangle = 5 m 50 cm
Breadth of the Rectangle = 6 m
To Find :
Area of floor that is not carpeted
Solution :
The Length of the Rectangular floor is 5 m 50 cm. Convert it into meters.
500 + 50 = 550 cm
550/100 = 5.5 m
★ Area =
5.5 × 6
33
Area of the floor is 33 sq.m
To get the area covered by the carpet ; find the area of the square.
★ Area =
5 × 5
25
Area covered by the Carpet is 25 sq.m
To get the Area of the floor that is not carpeted ; Subtract the area of carpet from the Area of floor.
Area of the Carpet = 25 m²
Area of the Rectangular Floor = 33m²
33 - 25
8
Area of the floor that is not carpeted is 8m².
The area of remaining room = 8m²
Given that :
Length of side of carpet = 5m
We know :
Put the given values :
Now :
Length of room => 5m 50 cm.
(5m 50 cm can written as 5.5 m)
Breadth => 6.
We know :
Put the given Values :
Now :
We know that :
Area of remaining room after putting carpet :
Put the Values :
Therefore the area of remaining room = 8m^2.
