To find the area of the yard that Daniel mows, we can first calculate the total area of the yard, which is:
10 feet (width) x 10 feet (length) = 100 square feet
Then, we can calculate the area of the garden, which is:
6 feet (length) x 3 feet (width) = 18 square feet
Finally, we can find the area that needs to be mowed by subtracting the area of the garden from the total area of the yard:
100 square feet - 18 square feet = 82 square feet
Therefore, the area that Daniel needs to mow is 82 square feet.
