A throw rug is 8 feet long and 4 feet wide it is a rectangular room with an area of 100 square feet how much of the room is not covered by the rug
A = LW
A = 8 * 4
A = 32 square feet
100 - 32 = ?
68 SQFT
To find out how much of the room is not covered by the rug, we need to calculate the area of the room and then subtract the area of the rug from it.
The given dimensions of the rug are 8 feet in length and 4 feet in width. Thus, the area of the rug can be found by multiplying these dimensions: 8 feet * 4 feet = 32 square feet.
Since the area of the room is given as 100 square feet, we can subtract the area of the rug from the area of the room to find out how much of the room is not covered: 100 square feet - 32 square feet = 68 square feet.
Therefore, 68 square feet of the room is not covered by the rug.
