Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

area of room=15×12=180 ft²

rug =108 ft²

magnification=√(108/180)=√(9/15)=3/√15

so length of rug=15×3/√15=3√15 ft

width of rug=12×3/√15=36√15/15=2.4√15 ft

Answer:

B. 300

Step-by-step explanation:

Final figure volume = big cuboid volume - small cuboid volume

Volume of a cuboid = height x width x length

Final figure = (6 x 6 x 15) - (4 x 4 x 15)

Final figure = 540 - 240

Final figure = 300mm^2
