This is urgent due in 10 mins plz help

Answer 1

Answer:

Area of Rectangle =  $3\frac{2}{3}$  square kilometers

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of rectangle is given by the formula:

Area of Rectangle = Length * Width

Given,

Length = 1  1/3rd km

Width =  2  3/4th km

Lets convert the numbers in improper fractions and then multiply and find the area:

$1\frac{1}{3}=\frac{(3*1)+1}{3}=\frac{4}{3}$

and

$2\frac{3}{4}=\frac{11}{4}$

Now, the area:

Area =  $\frac{4}{3}*\frac{11}{4}=\frac{11}{3}$

This answer, again back to mixed fraction is:

$\frac{11}{3}=3\frac{2}{3}$

THus,

Area of Rectangle =  $3\frac{2}{3}$  square kilometers
