162 square feet

i can probably figure this out but i've been really lazy lately.. hahaha

The correct option is B. 197.31 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of the rectangular field = 18 feet

Width of the rectangular field = 9 feet

Now, They want the cover to overlap the pool by 15 inches on all sides

15 inches = 1.25 feet

So, Length of the rectangular field = 19.25 feet

Width of the rectangular field = 10.25 feet

Area of the rectangle is given by the formula :

Area = Length × Width

So, Area of the rectangular field = 19.25 × 10.25

⇒ Area of the winter cover = 197.31 square feet

Therefore, The correct option is B. 197.31 square feet
