Answer:

135 square ft.

Explanation:

To solve this equation, you need to find the area of this rectangle. Area is always base x height, or in this case, length x width. Now you multply your length, 15', by your width, 9', to get your answer, 135 square feet. When you multiply two measurments of the same unit together, you get square (units), which simply means that you multiplied two of the same unit of measurment together.
