Question

A figure on a grid sheet of grids 1 $m{m}^2$ covers 5 complete grids and 6 more than half grids. Find the area of the figure.

• A. 11 $m{m}^2$
• B. 8 $m{m}^2$
• C. 5 $m{m}^2$
• D. 7 $m{m}^2$

Answer 1

The correct option is A 11 $m{m}^2$

Area occupied by each grid= 1 $m{m}^2$.
Number of complete grids occupied = 5
Number of more than half occupied grids = 6

So, the area of the figure
= 5 × 1 $m{m}^2$ + 6 × 1 $m{m}^2$
= 11 $m{m}^2$
