Answer:

10.24 in²

Explanation:

First we need to know how to find the area of a rectangle, which is base * height.

We can notice that the base and height are both 3.2, so we multiply 3.2*3.2.

To do this, we first have to completely ignore the decimal points. Just pretend you're multiplying 32*32, to get 1024. Then, we count how many numbers are past the decimal point on each number. On both, there is 1 number past, and we add those together to get 2 numbers past the decimal point.

We then, finally, make the number we got (1024) have 2 numbers past the decimal point, so instead of 1024, we have 10.24, which is our answer!
