Question

What is the area of a rectangular holding pond with length 8/15 mile and width 1/6 mile?

Answer 1

as you already know, the area of a rectangle is just length*width, so is just the product of those two.

$\bf \cfrac{8}{15}\times \cfrac{1}{6}\implies \cfrac{8}{6}\times \cfrac{1}{15}\implies \cfrac{4}{3}\times \cfrac{1}{15}\implies \cfrac{4}{45}$

Answer 2

Answer:

Area of rectangular holding pond is:

0.088 mile²

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find the  area of a rectangular holding pond with length 8/15 mile and width 1/6 mile

We know that area of rectangle= Length × width

So, Area of a rectangular holding pond = $\dfrac{8}{15}\times \dfrac{1}{6}$

                                                                 = 0.088 mile²

Hence, Area of rectangular holding pond is:

0.088 mile²
