A yard with dimensions of 15m x 10m has a flower garden in the middle. The flower garden has a dimensions of 4m x 7m. What Is the area of the yard without the flower garden?

Find the area of the yard:
AY = l x w
AY = 15 x 10
AFY= 150

Find the area of the flower garden:
AFG = l x w
AFG = 7 x 14
AFG = 28

Take the area of the remaining piece of the flower garden:
ARP = AY - AFG
A = 150 - 28
A = 122
