Answer:

62

Explanation:

The enclosing rectangle is 24 units long and 12 units high. Its area is ...

(24 units)(12 units) = 288 square units

The white circles obviously cover more than half the area, so the only viable answer choice is 62.

__

If you want to go to the trouble to actually figure it out, you can find the area of each circle using the area formula ...

A = πr² = (3.14)(6²) = 113.04

Then both circles have an area of 2×113.04 = 226.08, and the shaded area is the difference between that and the rectangle area:

shaded area = 288 -226.08 = 61.92 ≈ 62
