Answer 1

Answer: 5/24

Step-by-step explanation:

A=l*w

A=1/4*5/6

A=5/24.

Answer 2

0.21 square meter

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the section of wall = 1 square meter

Dimension of part of mural completed =
`(1)/(4)` meter by
`(5)/(6)` meter

Part of the mural completed = Area of the rectangular part of mural completed

But,

Area of a rectangle = length x width

So that,

Part of the mural completed = length x width

=
`(1)/(4)` x
`(5)/(6)`

=
`(5)/(24)`

= 0.2083

Part of the mural completed = 0.21 square meter

The part of the mural that has been completed by Beverly is 0.21 square meter.
