Find the area of these shapes, I’ve tried them but I’m not sure if they’re correct

Lelu [443]

A = 5m × 7m = 35 m²

A = 4cm×8cm/2 = 4cm×4cm = 16 cm²

A = 1,2km×0,8km/2 = 0,96km²/2 = 0,48 km²

A = (8m + 10m)·3m/2 = 18m·3m/2 = 9m·3m = 27 m²

Answer: She used half of a pound of flour.

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of flour she bought to bake some cookies = $\dfrac{3}{4}\text{ of a pound}$

Since, she used $\dfrac{2}{3}$ of the amount to bake her delicious chocolate chip cookies that means , the amount of flour she used would be

$\dfrac{2}{3}\times\text{amount of flour she bought}\\\\=\dfrac{2}{3}\times\dfrac{3}{4}\text{ of a pound}\\\\=\dfrac{1}{2}\text{ of a pound.}$

Hence, she used half of a pound of flour.
