Answer: 24cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
Let square with length 5cm be represented with A, and square with 7cm be represented with B.
Area of a square is L²
Square A will have an area of 5² = 25cm²
Square B will have an area of 7² = 49cm²
Total area between the two squares will be = Area of Square (B - A)
i.e.
Total Area = 49cm² - 25cm² = 24cm²
