Question

A field has a length of 260 meters and a width of 500 meters. Part of the field, 50 meters by 200 meters, is paved for a parking lot. How much of the area remains unpaved?

Answer 1

Answer: 120,000 meters²

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the area of all the land both paved and unpaved:

= Length * Width

= 260 * 500

= 130,000 meters²

The find the area paved:

= 50 * 200

= 10,000 meters²

The area left unpaved:

= Total area - Paved area

= 130,000 - 10,000

= 120,000 meters²
