Those are some wrong numbers you've given them besides being a direct answer

To find the area of the lawn (which is in green) we have to break up the shape into a rectangle and a triangle

Answer 7

the rectangle has a length of 16 and width of 8

area of rectangle = length * width

what is the area of the rectangle?


the triangle has a base of 14 and a height of 8

area of a triangle = 1/2 * base * height

what is the area of the triangle?

Answer 8

the total area of the lawn is going to be the area of the rectangle + area of triangle

so add up the two areas and that will be your final answer
