Question

What is the area of a room that is 3 3/4 yards long and 3 1/3 yards wide

Answer 1

Answer:

12½ yards²

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = length × width

Area = 3¾ × 3⅓

= 15/4 × 10/3

= 25/2

= 12½ yards²

Answer 2

Answer:

12 1/2 yd^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The area is length times width

A = 3 3/4 * 3 1/3

Change to improper fractions

A = 15/4 * 10/3

Rewriting

A = 15/3 * 10/4

   = 5 * 5/2

   = 25/2

Changing back to a mixed number

   = 12 1/2
