A three-story building has a total floor area of 488.52 square meters. If the owner rents out the third story, which measures 192.56 square meters, how much floor area remains for the owner to rent out?

To determine the remaining floor area that the owner has to be rented out, we simply subtract 192.56 square meters from 488.52 square meters. This will give us,

remaining floor area = 488.52 square meters - 192.56 square meters

= 295.96 square meters
