The answer is 243 27×9 is 243 and area is length times width

Answer 2

243 square feet.

Step-by-step explanation

The rectangular flower bed has length,

l=27 ft

and width, w=9ft.

The area of a rectangle is

Since the flower bed is rectangular, we use this formula to find its area.

`Area = 27 * 9 = 243 {ft}^(2)`

Therefore the area of the flower bed is 243 square feet.
