Answer:

D.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to have the area of the paper(rectangle) first. (Formula is Length x Width)

8 x 7 = 56

Then we subtract it by the area of the square (Formula is S x S)

5 x 5 = 25

56 - 25 = 31

Answer:

9. D. 31 sq.cm

Step-by-step explanation:

A=lw

A=8×7

A=56 cm²(paper)

A=s²

A=5²

A=25 cm² (square)

56cm²-25 cm²= 31 cm²(area of paper after he cut. out the square)
