Amelia is building 3 square garden beds that are all the same size. She arranges them side-by-side to seperate the certain plant
s. Amelia wants to know the total area of the garden beds. s= length (ft) of one side of a garden bed.
there are three garden beds. they are squares.
Write an expression to show the total area of garden beds.
You can find the area of each garden bed by multiplying the length of each square, and since a square has four equal sides, the area of one square would be s times s. S times s equals the area of ONE square, so you would take that area and multiply it by three, since you have three squares. Hope this helps!
