Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Something of this size could be measured in either ft² or in².
Area of a rectangle is determined by multiplying the width by the height. In this case the bulletin board will be installed vertically, so let's say that
Area of board = (width)(height)
If, for example, the width were 6 feet and the height 3.5 feet, the area of this board would be (6 ft)(3.5 ft) = 21 ft²
Since 1 ft = 12 in, this 6 foot by 3.5 foot board would be 72 inches by 42 inches.
