Area of a rectangle=length x width
You have two rectangles:
First rectangle (the biggest):
length=9 yd
width=12 yd-6 yd=6 yd
Area of the biggest rectangle=(9 yd)(6 yd)=54 yd²
Second rectangle (the smallest)
length=6 yd
width=3 yd
Area of the smallest rectangle=(6 yd)(3 yd)=18 yd²
Area of the ballroom=area of the biggest rectangle + area of the smallest rectangle.
area of the ballroom=54 yd² +18 yd²=72 yd²
Answer:
3,535 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
55cm=88km
Let's make that "one unit" - 55cm=1 unit. How many units are in the distance 5656km?
5656km/88km=64.2727... units.
55cmx64.2727... = 3,534.999 cm (depending on what your teacher requires, we can probably round to 3,535).
Therefore, we know that the two cities are 3,535 cm apart on the map.
