Dennis is cutting construction paper into rectangles for a project he needs to cut one rectangle that is 12 inches times 15 1/4

Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

Dennis need 288.91 square inches of construction paper for his project.

Step-by-step explanation:

Dennis is cutting construction paper into rectangles for a project.

He needs to cut one rectangle that is 12 inches times 15 1/4 inches

First convert the mixed fraction to improper fraction

$15\frac{1}{4} = \frac{(15\times4) + 1}{4} = \frac{61}{4}$

So the area of 1st rectangle is

$A_1 = 12\times \frac{61}{4} = 183 \: in^{2}$

He needs to cut another rectangle that is 10 1/3"" x 10 1/4""

The symbol " means inches

First convert the mixed fraction to improper fraction

$10\frac{1}{3} = \frac{(10\times3) + 1}{3} = \frac{31}{3}$

$10\frac{1}{4} = \frac{(10\times4) + 1}{4} = \frac{41}{4}$

So the area of 2nd rectangle is

$A_2 = \frac{31}{3}\times \frac{41}{4} = 105.91 \: in^{2}$

The total construction paper needed for this project is

$A = A_1 + A_2\\\\A = 183 + 105.91\\\\A = 288.91 \: in^{2}$

Therefore, Dennis need 288.91 square inches of construction paper for his project.
