Multiplicity means a large number. or large variety
8.2 is the answer to your question
For this, we need to find the area of the larger rectangle (The room) and subtract from that the area of the smaller, shaded rectangle (The rug).
A=LW (L=Length, W=Width, A=Area)
The larger rectangle first:
A=(15)(10)
A=150 feet squared
Now the Rug:
A=(12)(7)
A=84 feet squared
Now to find the area that is NOT covered by the rug, we subtract:
150-84
= 66 feet squared will NOT be covered by the rug.
Hope this Helps!
