FIND THE AREA (LEAVE EXPLANATION)

20 yd²

Step-by-step explanation:

lets do the big one

4 x (6-2) = 4 x 4 = 16 yd²

2 x (4-2) = 2x2 = 4 yd²

16 yd² + 4 yd² = 20 yd²

Another way

Find the area of the figure if it was a rectangle

4 x 6 = 24 yd²

then subtract 2 x 2 = 24 yd² - 4 yd² = 20 yd²

20

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the area of the squares separately, then add. the small square has a length and width of 2, and 2x2 is 4, so that area is 4. the bigger one has a length and width of 4, and 4x4 is 16, and then we add the two values together, and 16+4 is 20, so the total area is 20.

answer: city needs 2.4 inches of rainfall more to match the record of 40 inches.
