Answer: B. 88 m²

Rahul is asked to find a carpet who leaves a border of 2 m placed in the centre of the room which is 15 m by 12 m. So we have to find the length of the carpet we would have to subtract 4 m from the length of the room and the same with the breadth. So we would get the length of the room as 11 m and breadth of the room as 8 m so when we multiply it we would get 88 m ².
