Question

A photograph of sides 35cm by 22cm is mounted onto a

frame of external dimension 45cm by 30cm. Find the area
of the border surrounding the photograph.​

Answer 1

Answer: 580 square cm

===================================================

Work Shown:

A = area of smaller rectangle

A = length*width

A = 35*22

A = 770

B = area of larger rectangle

B = length*width

B = 45*30

B = 1350

C = area of the border only

C = B - A

C = 1350-770

C = 580 square cm

Answer 2

Explanation:

Dimension of photograph is 35cm and 22cm.

And external dimension of photo frame is 45cm and 30cm

So, the area of the border surrounding the photograph=Area of photo frame−Area of photo.

So, The area of the border surrounding the photograph=45×30−35×22

=1350−770=580cm
