Answer:

as the diagram is not provided by you

Step-by-step explanation:

proper an answer cannot be written if the three circles touch Each Other as well as the the sides of the rectangle it means that rectangles length and breadth are made by attaching to circles together which means that length and breadth of the rectangle are equal therefore length is equal to diameter of one circle into two that is 8 therefore length and breadth of the rectangle are 8 each other for exact area of rectangle is 8 x 8 = 64
