Answer 1

You just need to multiply them together the. You'll get 2275/6 or 379 1/6 sq feet

Answer 2

Answer:  The required area of the pool is $379\dfrac{1}{6}~\textup{sq. ft}.$

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that a rectangular pool is $30\dfrac{1}{3}$ feet long and $12\dfrac{1}{2}$ feet wide.

We are to find the area of the pool.

We know that

the area of a rectangle with l units and width w units is given by

$A=lw.$

For the given rectangular pool, we have

$l=30\dfrac{1}{3}=\dfrac{91}{3},\\\\\\w=12\dfrac{1}{2}=\dfrac{25}{2}.$

Therefore, the area of the pool is given by

$A=lw=\dfrac{91}{3}\times\dfrac{25}{2}=\dfrac{2275}{6}=379\dfrac{1}{6}.$

Thus, the required area of the pool is $379\dfrac{1}{6}~\textup{sq. ft}.$
