Question

How do you find the area. My brain is mush... And please do explain.

Answer 1

The formula for the area is l • w
( length • width) 4•12= 48

Answer 2

Area = Length x Width in rectangles (Doesn't really matter which number goes where, there's only 2 sides that matter)

A = 12 x 4

A = 48 feet^2

because the two sides are 4 feet x 12 feet

Two equal variables multiplied at each other can be written as an exponent
