Question

painting is a rectangle 20cm long and 16cm wide. painting and frame together is 25cm long and 20 cm wide. find the area of the frame with no overlap between frame and painting

Answer 1

Formula for area = length · width

Painting = 20 × 16 = 320

Frame + Painting = 25 × 20 = 500

Since you already know that the painting itself is 320 cm, subtract it from the total.

500 - 320 = 180

Answer = 180 cm²

Hope this helped :)
