Question

Harvey bought a frame in which he put his family's picture. Frame is 16 inches wide and 22 inches length. Picture area is 12 inches wide and 18 inches length. What is the area of the frame

Answer 1

The area of the picture frame is 352 inches

Answer 2

As frame and picture both are in rectangular shape

So area = length (width)

Area of the frame with picture = 16 (22)

Area of the frame = 352 sq.in

Area of the picture = (12)(18)

Area of the picture = 216 sq.in

Area of the frame = Area of the frame with picture - Area of the picture

Area of the frame = 352 - 216

Area of the frame = 136 sq. in
