Question

PLEASE HELP ASAP!!!!! IM CONFUSED AND GOT IT WRONG

Answer 1

Answer:

18.9 square meters

Step-by-step explanation:

I think you mean that the area of the Rectangle A is 10.5 not 105.

10.5+ 8.4- 1.26= 18.9

Where I got the 1.26 from?

3/25 the area of Rectangle A is area of the overlap of the rectangles. Which means we have to divide 10.5 by 25 and multiply by 3. That gives us 1.26.

I hope this is helpful.

Answer 2

Answer:

Area of the gym floor = 100.8 square meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the gym floor = Area of rectangle A + Area of rectangle B - Area of the overlap

Area of rectangle A = 105 square meters

Area of rectangle B = 8.4 square meters

Area of the overlap = $\frac{3}{25}\times (\text{Area of rectangle A})$

                                = $\frac{3}{25}\times 105$

                                = 12.6 square meters

Area of the gym floor = 105 + 8.4 - 12.6

                                    = 100.8 square meters

Therefore, area of the gym floor is 100.8 square meters.
