Chloe is painting on a stretched canvas that has an area of 108 square inches. The length of the canvas is 12 inches. The width of the canvas is ? inches. Chloe paints a 1-inch-wide blue border on the canvas. The area left for painting after painting the border is ? square inches.
A = L x W
A / L = (L x W) / L
A / L = W
W = A / L = 108 / 12
W = 9 inches
Next , The one inch border reduces the length and the width each by 2 inches, so L and W now equal 10 and 7
A = L x W = 10 x 7 = 70 sq inches left for painting
