From a rectangle with sides 11 cm and 8 cm, cut 2 squares with sides 5 cm each. Find the area of the remaining part of the figure.

1. Find the area of the rectangle, for this we multiply the length by the width:

11 * 8 = 88 cm2.

2. Find the area of the square:

5 * 5 = 25 cm2.

3. Find the area of two squares:

25 * 2 = 50 cm2.

4. Find the area of the remaining figure, for this we subtract the area of two squares from the area of the rectangle:

88 – 50 = 38 cm2.

Answer: 38 cm2.
