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.

Answer: A = L x W

Step-by-step explanation:. Mrs. Jackson should use the formula to calculate area in order to figure out how much paper to buy. The formula is Area = Length x Width. This will tell her exactly how much paper she will need to cover the bulletin board.

10%*x=14
x=14/10%
x=140

(4/32)*100
is the same as (1/8)*100= 12.5%

#4
1%* x=11
x=11/1%
x=1100

by the way * means multiply
