Answer:
63 ft^2
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the area for the rectangle is 72 feet squared.
We also know that the area for the triangle is 9 feet squared.
To find out the area of the whole thing you subtract 72-9 whcih gives you 63.
Since division is the opposite of multiplication, you can turn this division problem into a multiplication problem by multiplying the top fraction by the reciprocal of the bottom.
1 yard=36 inches
9 times 1=9
multiply both sides by 9
9 times 1 yard=9 times 36 inches
9 yard=324 inches
