Question

Find the area of the following rectangle? Write your answer in simplest form. Be sure to include the correct unit in your answer. Length= 5/6ft Width= 7/12ft

Answer 1

See below...

Explanation:

We know that the formula for the area of a rectangle is

length `*` width

This tells us that if the units are the same for the length and the width, the units for the area will be `units^2`

In this case, as all measurements are in feet, the area will be in `ft^2`.

`therefore`

area `= 5/6 *7/12 = 35/72ft^2`
