Answer 1

Given :-

• Number of squares = 24

• Side of each square = 3 cm

To Find :-

• Area of the tabletop.

Formula used -

• Area of square.

Solution :-

In the question, we are given with the number is squares, and they all are of size 3cm, and we need to find the area of the square, for that, we will, use the formula of area of square, and then, we will multiply it with 24, that will give us the area of the tabletop. Let's do it!

So-

Area of a square = Side × Side

Where,

A = Area

S = Side = 3cm

On substituting the values -

$\longrightarrow$ Area = 3 × 3

$\longrightarrow$ Area = 9 cm

According to the question,

Area of 24 squares would be -

Area obtained × no; of squares given -

$\longrightarrow$ 24 × 9

$\longrightarrow$ Area = 216 cm²

$\therefore$ The area of the tabletop is 216 cm².

Answer 2

${\large{\bold{\bf{\underline{Let's \: understand \: the \: question \: 1^{st}}}}}}$

☑ This question says that a tabletop is covered with 24 squares of equal size. If the side of the square is 3 cm. And at last we have to find the area of the tabletop

☑ To solve this question we have to use the formula to find area of square we have to multiply the sides firstly using formula and then we have to multiply area of square by total number of square and we get our final result that is 216 cm² as area of the tabletop. Let's solve it !!

${\large{\bold{\bf{\underline{Given \; that}}}}}$

• Number of squares = 24

• Side of square = 3 cm

${\large{\bold{\bf{\underline{To \; find}}}}}$

• Area of tabletop.

${\large{\bold{\bf{\underline{Solution}}}}}$

• Area of tabletop = 216 cm²

${\large{\bold{\bf{\underline{Using \; concept}}}}}$

• Formula to find area of square.

${\large{\bold{\bf{\underline{Using \; formula}}}}}$

• Area of square = Side × Side

${\large{\bold{\bf{\underline{Full \; Solution}}}}}$

~ Let's find area of square

${\sf{\longmapsto Area \: of \: square \: = \: Side \times Side}}$

${\sf{\longmapsto Area \: of \: square \: = \: 3 \times 3}}$

${\sf{\longmapsto Area \: of \: square \: = \: 9 cm^{2}}}$

~ Now let's find the area of tabletop

${\sf{\longmapsto A \: of \: tabletop \: = \: A \: of \: square \: \times \: Total \: no. \: of \: square}}$

${\sf{\longmapsto A \: of \: tabletop \: = \: 9 \times 24}}$

${\sf{\longmapsto A \: of \: tabletop \: = \: 216 cm^{2}}}$

${\small{\red{\frak{Henceforth, \: 216 cm^{2} \: is \: area \: of \: tabletop}}}}$
