Answer:

Place the squares on the rectangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The area of the 1cm by 1cm square is 1 square cm.

We can solve for the area by placing multiple of those squares in the larger rectangle.

If we place it, we get 15 placed squares, with a total area of 15 square cm. This relies on the meaning of area, as we are simply measuring the number of square cm taken up by the object.

We would place 3 rows of 5 squares, representing a height of 3 cm (side length of 3 squares), and a length of 5 cm (side length go 4 squares).

This also proves the area formula A = L * W, as we multiple the side lengths to find the number of square units.
