Question

A rectangular field has side lengths that measure 5/6 mile and 1/3 mile. What is the area of the field?

Answer 1

5/18 square miles



To find area, multiply the length (5/6) by the width (1/3). To multiply fractions, you multiply the numerators together to get the new numerator and multiply the denominators together to get the new denominator.

Start by multiplying the numerators.

5 * 1 = 5

Now multiply the denominators.

6 * 3 = 18

Now, just put them together to get 5/18 square miles.
