Question

a small table is 2 feet by 3 feet a large table is twice as long and rwice as wide as the small table. Whats the area of the large in square feet

Answer 1

Answer:

The area of larger table is 24 square feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given are the length and width of small table

$l_s = 2\ ft\\w_s = 3\ ft$

The area of a rectangular table is calculated by multiplying the length and width. It is also given that the length and width of the larger table is double the length and width of small table

So the length and width of larger table will be:

$l_l = 2*2 = 4\ feet\\w_l = 3*2 = 6\ feet$

The area of larger table will be:

$A_l = l_l*w_l\\= 4 * 6\\=24\ ft^2$

Hence,

The area of larger table is 24 square feet.
