Question

How can you use a unit tile to find the area of a rectangle with fractional side lengths?

Answer 1

Explanation:

The area can be found by the formula

`\boxed{\boxed{\bf S=ab}}`

This is universal, regardless of whether the fractional side or not; the main thing at the end is to convert to a decimal fraction

For example

`a=(3)/(4) ~~ ; ~~ b=(1)/(3) \\\\ S=(\\ot \!3)/(4) \cdot (1)/(\\ot\!3)= (1)/(4) \rm un^2=0,25 un^2`
