A floor is 5 m long and 4 m wide. A square carpet of sides 3 m is laid on the floor. Find the area of the floor that is not carpeted.

Length of floor = 5 m and breadth of floor = 4 m
Area of floor = length x breadth
= 5 m x 4 m = 20 m²
Now, Side of square carpet = 3 m
Area of square carpet = side x side = 3 x 3 = 9 m²
Area of floor that is not carpeted = 20 m² – 9 m² = 11 m²

To find the uncarpeted area of the floor, first calculate the area of the rectangular floor as length x width = 5 x 4 = 20 square meters. Next, find the carpet area using side x side = 3 x 3 = 9 square meters. Subtract the carpet area from the floor area: 20 – 9 = 11 square meters. This calculation ensures an accurate measure of the uncovered portion of the floor.
