Question 874221: A swimming pool and deck are built in a rectangle with length 40 ft and width 18 ft. If the pool itself is 320 square feet, what is the area of the deck itself? Answer by rosebrice(1) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Find the area of the entire rectangle. 40 x 18 = 720. Then subtract the area of the pool. 720 - 320 = 400. The area of the deck is 400 square feet.
