Answer: 1 Mark

Let the length and breadth of the bigger rectangle be am and bm respectively

Then, the length of the shaded rectangle is (0.1 a)m.

Then, the breadth of the shaded rectangle is (0.001 b)m.

Area of the given bigger rectangle = ab metres. = 10000 m2

Area of the shaded rectangle = (0.1a) × (0.001b)

= (0.0001) × (ab)

= (0.0001) × (10000)

= 1m2
