Question

A lot is 60 m by 39 m. A house 25 m by 8 m is built on the lot.how much area is left over

Answer 1

Answer: 2140 square meters

Explanation:

We need to subtract the area of the lot (60 by 39) and the house (25 by 8) to find out how much area is left over

So let's write an equation to find the area of both of them and solve to see how much is left

(60)(39)−(25)(8)=A

2340+−200=A

(2340+−200)=A (Combine Like Terms)

2140=A
