Question

How many square feet of outdoor carpet will we need for this hole?

Answer 1

39 square feet.

Explanation:

You can split the outdoor carpet into 2 rectangles, one being the 11 ft x 3 ft and the 3 ft by the 2ft.

Let's solve the area for the 11 ft x 3 ft by multiplying the length and width:

11 x 3 = 33

Now let's solve the rectangle on the bottom by multiplying the length by the width again:

3 x 2 = 6

Once we have found the areas for our 2 rectangles, we can simply add them to find the total amount of square feet for the whole shape:

33 + 6 = 39

39 square feet

Answer 2

Answer:39 sq. ft

There are two rectangles, so the combined areas will equal the complete carpet amount needed for the hole. Area of a rectangle: length x width. 11(3)+2(3)= 39
