Question

Mary is making a poster to take with her to her favorite band's concert. The poster she has to decorate is 113 feet by 214 feet. Explain how this can be used to find the total area of the poster she is decorating.

Answer 1

Answer:

A = 24182  ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

The dimension of the poster she has to decorate is 113 feet by 214 feet. It is in the shape of a rectangle. She can find the area by using the formula for the area of a rectangle.

A = lb

Here, l = 113 feet and b = 214 feet

A = 113 ft × 214 ft

A = 24182  ft²

Hence, the total area of the poster is 24182  ft².
