DerKrebs [107]

The given frame is rectangular in shape.

The length of the frame is = 45 inch

1 inch = 0.0833 feet

So, 45 inch = 3.7485 feet

Hence length of frame is = 3.7485 feet

Similarly width = 32 inch

So, 32 inch = 2.6656 feet

So we get the length and width now.

Area of rectangle = $length*width$

= $3.7485*2.6656$

= 9.9920 square feet.
