A 2-meter wide deck surrounds a swimming pool, as shown below. What is the approximate surface area of the pool? A 105.12 m² 2 m Deck B 130.24 m² Pool C 193.04 m² 18 m D 272.52 m² 12 m​



Answer :

Okay, so to find out how big the pool is, we gotta figure out its size. The pool is surrounded by a 2-meter wide deck, so we need to subtract 4 meters (2 meters from each side) from the total width and length of the deck. After doing some math, we find out that the pool is 5 meters long and 7 meters wide. When we multiply those together, we get 35 square meters for the pool's surface area. So, the right answer is B: 130.24 m² Pool.
