Answer:
1350 inches
Explanation:
Ben was framing a small herb garden for his mother .
He wants garden to be 30 inches long and 45 inches wide.
So,
Length of a small herb garden framed by Ben for his mother = 30 inches
Breadth of a small herb garden framed by Ben for his mother = 45 inches
We need to find the dimensions of a piece of wood that Ben will need to purchase to frame the garden.
As the garden is in the shape of rectangle, it's area = length × breadth
So, area of piece of wood that Ben will need to frame the garden = 30 inches × 45 inches = 1350 inches
