Answer:

809 km²

Explanation:

I can split this into 3 rectangles. One is 25 by 17, another is 24 by 13, and the last one is 6 by 12. (I had gotten 13 for the second rectangle because 25 - 12 = 13.)

(25 * 17) + (24 * 13) + (6 * 12) {17 is the first number after a multiple of 4 (16). As a result, 25 by 17 will end in "25." 25 by 17 is 425.}

425 + (24 * 13) + (6 * 12) {24 by 13 is 312.}

425 + 312 + (6 * 12) {6 by 12 is 72.}

425 + 312 + 72 {From left to right, add 425, 312, and 72 to get 809}

737 + 72

809 km²

The area of this figure is 809 km².
