Question

The formula A=lw gives the

area A of a rectangle with
length 1. What is the area in
square feet of a rug with a
length of 13 feet and width of
6 feet?

Answer 1

78 ft^2

Explanation:

A = lw

l = 13 ft

w = 6 ft

A = 13ft x 6 ft

A = 78 ft^2

Multiply the length by width to find Area. The unit for Area will be feet squared because both the numbers for length and width had the same unit.
