One of the sides of the rectangle is 22 m, which is 25 cm shorter than the second side. Find the area of the rectangle.

First, find the length of the second side of the rectangle. To do this, since the first side is 25 cm shorter, 25 cm must be added to its length. First, we will translate 25 cm into meters. 1 meter equals 100 cm.

25/100 = 0.25 m.

22 + 0.25 = 22.25 m.

To find the area of a rectangle, multiply the lengths of two adjacent sides.

22 * 22.25 = 489.5 m2.

Answer: the area of the rectangle is 489.5 m2.
