<h3>Answer:</h3>

12 units²

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

Counting half-squares around the perimeter of the rectangle, we find there are 10. Counting full squares inside the rectangle, we find there are 7. Then the total area is

... (1/2)·10 +7 = 12 square units

_____

<em>Alternate calculation</em>

The long side is the hypotenuse of a right triangle with legs 3, so has length 3√2. The short side is the hypotenuse of a right triangle with legs 2, so has length 2√2. The area is the product of these lengths, so is ...

.. area = (3√2)(2√2) = 6(√2)² = 6·2 = 12 . . . square units

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation

Write down the equation: (15 / 100) * x = 12

Solve for x: x = 12 / (15 / 100)

x = (12 * 100) / 15

or, x = 80
