In the diagram below, all measurements are given correct to the nearest cm. Calculate the greatest possible area of the shaded region.

The possible area of the region that is shaded is given as 462cm.
The picture here shows us two rectangles.
The area of a rectangle is given as L * w
= length x width
We have to find the area of the first rectangle
21cm x 42cm
= 882 cm
Next we find the area of the rectangle inside
15cm x 28cm
= 420
To get the area of the shaded region
= 882 - 420
= 462cm
