A carpet measures 7 meters 3 decimeters in length and 4 meters 2 decimeters in width. What is its area in square meters?

Answer 1

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

change decimetres into metres

length - 7.3m

Width - 4.2m

to find an area, do length times width

7.3 x 4.2 = 30.66 square metres

I hope this helped :)

Answer 2

Answer:

C. 30.66 square meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for area is A = L × W

L = length

W = width

Because a demimeter is 1 tenth of a meter your new measurements are 7.3 and 4.2.

multiply the measurements to find the area of 30.66² meters
