Question

. The dimensions of a large broken window are 122⁄3 feet wide and 81⁄3 feet tall. How many square feet of glass are required to replace the window?

Answer 1

1098 ft²

Area = width × height

=
`(122)/(3)` ×
`(81)/(3)`

=
`(122(81))/(3(3))` =
`(9882)/(9)`= 1098 ft²

Answer 2

`1098` square feet of glass is needed to replace the window.

Explanation:

Square feet is the unit of measure of Area. How many square feet of glass are required to replace the window can be found by calculating the area of the window.

Area of the window = Width * Length

=
`(122)/(3)*(81)/(3)`

=
`(122*81)/(3*3)`

=
`(9882)/(9)`

=
`1098` square feet.

∴ we need
`1098` square feet of glass.
