Question

Brian is tiling a patio and ran out of tiles. The width of the remaining area of ⅔ yard. The length of the remaining area is 4 yards. What is the area Brian has left to tile?

Answer 1

Area of the remaining patio = 2.67 square yards

Explanation:

Width of the remaining area of the patio =
`(2)/(3)` yards

Length of the remaining area of the patio = 4 yards

Since, area of the remaining area of the rectangular patio

= Length × Width

=
`(2)/(3)* 4`

=
`(8)/(3)`

= 2.67 square yards

Therefore, area of the remaining area of the patio = 2.67 square yards
