Question

Their is a rectangle that has measurements in inches. If the width is 7/8 of an inch and the height is 2/3 of an inch, what is the AREA of the rectangle?

Answer 1

Answer:

Area of a rectangle = 7/12 of an inch

Step-by-step explanation

Area of a rectangle = Length × width

In this case, the length is represented by height

Height = 2/3 of an inch

Width = 7/8 of an inch

Area of a rectangle = Length × width

= 2/3 × 7/8

= (2 * 7) / (3 * 8)

= 14 / 24

= 7 / 12

Area of a rectangle = 7/12 of an inch
