2 6/8 + 1 4/8 + 3 3/8
2 + 1 + 3 = 6
6/8 + 4/8 + 3/8 = 13/8
So 6 13/8 or 7 5/8
Answer:
the answer is 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
<em>97.5 sq. ft.</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Im presuming the question asks to find area of the shaded region.
First of all, the total figure is a rectangle. We can write an expression(in words) for the shaded area.
<em>Shaded Area = Area of Rectangle - Area of Small Triangle(White) - Area of Large Triangle(White)</em>
Now, we find respective areas.
Area of rectangle:
length * width = (5+10) * (12) = 15 * 12 = 180
Area of Small Triangle (white):
A = (1/2) * base * height = (1/2) * 5 * (12-3) = (1/2) * 5 * 9 = 22.5
Area of Large Triangle (white):
A = (1/2) * base * height = (1/2) * 10 * (12) = 60
Now, we find area of shaded region:
<em>Shaded Area = Area of Rectangle - Area of Small Triangle(White) - Area of Large Triangle(White)</em>
<em>Shaded Area = 180 - 22.5 - 60 = 97.5 sq. ft.</em>
