a room is 26 m long and 15 meter wide a 14 m square carpet is laid on the floor what area is not carpeted
Area of square
carpet = Side × Side
= (14 × 14)m sq
= 196m sq
Area of Rectangular
Room = length × breadth
= (26 × 15)m sq
= 390m sq
Area not
carpeted = Area of Room - Area of
carpet
= (390 - 196)m sq
= 194m sq Ans.
To find the area that is not carpeted, we first need to calculate the total area of the room and then subtract the area of the carpet.
Given:
Length of the room = 26 m
Width of the room = 15 m
Area of the carpet = 14 m²
To find the total area of the room, we can multiply its length by its width:
Total Area of the room = Length × Width
= 26 m × 15 m
= 390 m²
To find the area not carpeted, we need to subtract the area of the carpet from the total area of the room:
Area not carpeted = Total Area of the room - Area of the carpet
= 390 m² - 14 m²
= 376 m²
Therefore, the area that is not carpeted is 376 square meters.
Room area = 26 X 15 = 390 Sq m
Carpet area = 14 X 14 = 196 Sq m
Area not carpeted = 390 - 196 = 194 Sq m
