Question

Larry and his friends play a game in the space shown below where each person playing has to defend one section. How much area does the person in the red section need to defend? The shape is 8 ft and 6 ft

Answer 1

The total area of the space is 8 ft x 6 ft = 48 square feet.

Since there are 4 people playing, each person needs to defend 1/4 of the total area.

Therefore, the person in the red section needs to defend 48 square feet / 4 = 12 square feet.
