Question

A bedroom wall is to be painted around a window as shown below.

A rectangle with length 11 feet and width 10 feet. A smaller rectangle with length 3 feet and width 2 feet is cut out of the larger rectangle.

What is the area of the wall that will be painted?

104 ft2

This is because you are taking away the room area. So 11x10=110 (Area of the whole wall) and u are cutting off 3x2=6 (Area of the wall you are cutting off). So you subtract 110-6= 104 ft2.
