Question

The shape of the space is a rectangle. What is the actual area of the space they are filling with cement?

Answer 1

Answer:

The area would be the length of the rectangle times the with of the rectangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Imagine the rectangle is cut up into tiny squares. For example, if the length of the rectangle is 5, and the with is 6, than each square would represent 1 unit that is in the area of the rectangle. So if you put 6 squares on the length of that rectangle, that side would be filled up, because the with is 6 and the length would be 4. Add 6 more squares on the with and you have 3 more square colluoms. Add 3 more times 6 than the rectangle would be filled with squares. What we just did is finding the area, which can be simplified to making 5 rows of 6 unit square colloums. This can be even more simplified by the equation length times with
