Question

Question:

Consider the rectangle shown here.

A. State its area in square inches.

B. State its area in square feet, to the nearest tenth.

C. In general, A square inches equals how many square feet?

Answer 1

There is no rectangle shown.

To find area, you multiply the rectangle’s length by its width. If it comes out to be a decimal and you need to round it by the nearest tenth, then you round it to the right of the decimal point.

Ex: 2.34 -> 2.3

Then, to find how much square inches are equal to square ft, you divide the square inches by 12, I believe.
