From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Length (L) = 2⅔ yards
Width (W) = 1½ yards
Area (A) =.?
The area of the piece of fabric that Roberto needs can be obtained by using the formula for calculating the area of a rectangle. This is illustrated below:
Area (A) = Length (L) × Width (W)
A = 2⅔ × 1½
A = 8/3 × 3/2
A = 8 × ½
A = 4 yd²
Thus, the area of the piece of fabric that Roberto needs is 4 yd²
