Answer:
420 in^2
Explanation:
The area of the rectangle before removing the circles is
A = l*w
A = 24*22
=528
The area of one of the circles is
A = pi r^2
The diameter is 6 so the radius is 6/2 = 3
= 3.14 * ( 3) ^2
=28.26
There are 4 circles
4* 28.26
113.04
Subtract the area of the 4 circles from the rectangle
528-113.04
414.96
415 in ^2
The best estimate is 420
