Okay, First, Lets Remember The Formulas. Area Of A Rectangle : 
BH. 
Area Of A Circle:
R23.14. 
1612 Is The Area Of The Rectangle. 1612 = 192.
Area Of The Two Semicircles = 663.14. 66 = 36. 36*3.14 =113.04. 
Now, 192-113.04 = 78.96 in ^2. Hope This Helps!

What MathGeek said was pretty correct except for the area of the circle.
The area of a circle is pi r squared, aka pi*radius to the second power.

So, it should be 192 - 36pi ( the radius would be 6, because radius is half the diameter, and 6 to the second power is 36 ).

:D You're welcome.
