Answer:

Option D, 36 cm squared

Explanation:

Step 1: Determine the area of the total rectangle

A = w * l

$A = 12\ cm * 5\ cm$

$A = 60\ cm^2$

Step 2: Determine the area of the inner rectangle

A = w * l

$A = 8\ cm * 3\ cm$

$A = 24\ cm^2$

Step 3: Subtract the inner rectangle from the total rectangle

Gray region →
$60\ cm^2 - 24\ cm^2$

Gray region →
$36\ cm^2$
