Question

Po has a frame that is 9 in x 8 in. What is the maximum area the picture can have to fit in the frame?

Answer 1

To find the area of this we have to multiply length times width

9 in* 8in
72 in^2

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

Answer:

$72in^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

The rectangle frame has an area of

$A=length* height$

the length of the frame is 9 inches, and the height of the frame is 8 inches, so:

$A=9in*8in=72in^2$

And since this is the area of the frame you can not put a picture in it that has an area larger than that because it would not fit.

So the maximum area a picture can have to fit in is $72in^2$.
