Question 1017696: Joey wanted to put up a car park measuring 3m by 3m in a corner of his square lot. He found out that it would leave him 112 sq m for the rest of the lot. What were the dimension of his lot? Answer by fractalier(6550) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! If his car park was 3m by 3m, then its area is 9 m^2. If 112 m^2 was left over, that means the original lot was 121 m^2.
If it is square, it must be 11 m by 11 m.
