Question

Caleb is painting and this figure the Shaded area represents the part of the picture that has painted blue. what is the area of the blue part of Caleb's picture

Answer 1

The above rough sketch repressents the shaded area of the mural and the shaded part is a rectangle.

Area of a shaded mural = Length x Breadth

`\begin{gathered} \text{Length}=\text{ }(6)/(8)m \\ \text{Breadth}=(4)/(8)m \\ \text{area of the shaded mural = }(6)/(8)*(4)/(8)=(24)/(64)=(3)/(8)m^2 \end{gathered}`

Hence, the shaded area (blue) of the mural is deduced above.
