I'm assuming a quarter-circle is exactly 1/4 of a circle. Thus if you have 4 congruent quarter-circles, that should mean they make a complete circle.
If that is the case, then we can find the area of the full circle using pi*r^2.
So the area of the circle is 5^2*pi or 25pi.
To find the area of the shaded region, we subtract the area of the circle from the area of the square.
The area of the square is 10^2 or 100.
So the area of the shaded region is 100 - 25pi.
My calculator says that equals roughly 21.46
If Ann can build the model in 3 hours, then in 1 hour she gets 1/3 of it done. Likewise, if Sam can build the model in 6 hours, then in 1 hour he gets 1/6 of it done. We are looking to find how long it takes when they combine their efforts, so we will add the two together and set it equal to 1/x, x being the number of hours it takes for both of them to get the whole job done. The equation then looks like this:
. You will have to find the common denominator to add those fractions, and once you do, cross multiply to solve for x.
