Answer:
59cm^2
Step-by-step explanation:
first you can do 8x9 to get 72 then you can subtract 4x2 from 72 to get 64 and lastly you have to subtract 4 from 9 to get the area of the small rectangle on the left so you get 5 and then you have to get the width which is 4+3 from the top and subtract that from 8 on the bottom which is 1 so now you have 5x1 which is 5 and subtract that from 64 to get 59cm^2
hope this helps
