the area of the triangle is 20. using the base of the rectangle [5] and the height of the triangle[8]. I did the same for the rectangle and got the area of 40 for the rectangle
You find out how many times 4 goes into 4 and get 1 then you find out how many times 4 goes into 5 and get 1 but you subtract 5 minus 4 and get 1 then bring down the 7 to get 17 then find out how many times 4 goes into 17 which is 4 times because 4 times 4 is 16 and you do 17 minus 16 and get 1 then add a decimal and bring down the 1 to get 10 then find out how many times 4 goes into 10 and get 2 subtract and get 2 bring down the zero turn it into 0 then you get 20 then find out how many times 4 goes into 20 and get 5 and 4*5=20 so 20-20 is 0 so your answer is 114.25
