Answer:

Mr Smith gets a new job, every 5 months on the average.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mr Smith spends an average of 3 months on every job he gets.

Then he spends an average of 2 months in between jobs.

Meaning, on the average, if he has a job, he does it for 3 months, then leaves, lends the next 2 months without a job, then gets another job at the end of the 2 months without a job and then he repeats the cycle of 3 months on the job, 2 months without the job.

So, on the average it takes Mr. Smith, (3+2) months to get a new job.

Find the areas of the two individual rectangles and then add that up to find the area of the figure:

Rectangle A:                                                             Rectangle B:

= Length * Width                                                       = 11.5 * 3

= 7.5 * 3                                                                     = 34.5ft²

= 22.5 ft²

Area of figure:

= 22.5 + 34.5

= 57 ft²
