Problema Solution
The Solomon's need to find the area of their front yard and side yards since they want to reseed the lawn. Both side yards measure 3 meters by 10 meters, while the front yard is a square with a side of 9 meters. They do not need to reseed a proportion of the front yard covering 16 square meters where a flower bed is located. What is the area of the yard that the Solomon's want to reseed?
Answer provided by our tutors
the area of their front yard and side yards is:
2*3*10 + 9*9 = 141 m^2
They do not need to reseed a proportion of the front yard covering 16 square meters where a flower bed is located:
141 - 16 = 125 m^2 is the area of the yard that the Solomon's want to reseed.
