Question

The bottom of Zeyda's jewelry box is a rectangle with a length of 5 3/8 in and a width of 3 1/4. What is the area of the bottom of the jewelry box

Answer 1

17.468 inch^2

Explanation:

Given,

Length is 5 3/8 = 43/8

and Width is 3 1/4 = 13/4

We know, the area of a rectangle is Length X Width

So, according to the formula, we get,

Area= 43/8 X 13/4

= 559/32

= 17.468

So, the area of the bottom of the jewelry box is 17.468 inch^2.
