The length of a rectangle is 10 cm and breadth is 7 cm. What will be the area of a rectangle formed by joining 12 of these rectangles?
840 cm2
Given,
The length of a rectangle = 10 cm
Breadth = 7 cm
Area of a rectangle = Length × Breadth = 10×7 = 70 cm2
When we join several figures, the area of the figure formed is the sum of areas of the figures joined.
Hence, area of the larger rectangle = 12×70
= 840 cm2
