Question

A lot is 60 m by 36 m. A house 33 m by 8 m is built on the lot. How much area is left over ?

Answer 1

You first figure out the size of the lot Then the size of the house Then subtract the size of the house from the size of the lot 1896 is what I figured

Answer 2

To find area, multiply "length x width", or "base x height"

Find the area of the lot

60 x 36 = 2160 m²

Find the area of the house

33 x 8 = 264 m²

Subtract

2160 - 264 = 1896

1896 m² is the amount left over

hope this helps
