Rina8888 [55]

Answer: $20\frac{11}{32}\ sq\ yd$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The width of the room = $3\frac{7}{8}\ yd=\frac{31}{8}\ yd$

The length of the room = $1\frac{5}{4}\ yd=\frac{21}{4}\ yd$

The area of the rectangular room= $length \times width$

⇒The area of the rectangular room= $\frac{21}{4}\times\frac{31}{8}\ sq\ yd$

⇒The area of the rectangular room= $\frac{651}{32}\ sq\ yd$

⇒The area of the rectangular room= $20\frac{11}{32}\ sq\ yd$
