The area of a rectangle is calculated by multiplying the length of the rectangle and the width of the rectangle. In this case, the length (the longer side) is 2 2/3 feet while the width (shorter side) is 1 2/3 feet. To multiply fraction, first convert mixed numbers into improper fractions:
2 2/3 = 8/3
1 2/3 = 5/3
Multiplying the two fractions yield:
8/3 x 5/3 = 40/9 ft2
The final answer is 40/9 ft2 or 4 4/9 ft2.

Step-by-step explanation:
The common difference (d) can be found using the first and 4th terms:
a1 = 3
a4 = a1 +d(4 -1)
-9 = 3 +3d . . . . . simplify
-3 = 1 + d . . . . . . divide by 3
-4 = d . . . . . . . . . subtract 1
Then ...
x = a1 + d = 3 -4 = -1
y = x + d = -1 -4 = -5
The values of x and y are -1 and -5, respectively.
Let x = the amount of time that the third person needs to work on the job to add up to one
1 = 1/2 + 1/3 + x
1 - 1/2 - 1/3 = x
To subtract the fractions we need to put them all over a common denominator. Let's use 3*2 = 6 as the denominator; so 1 = 6/6, 1/2 = 3/6, 1/3 = 2/6:
6/6 - 3/6 - 2/6 = x
1/6 = x
The third person must work 1/6 time on the project.
