Answer 1

14+14=28 16+16=32 28×32=896

Answer 2

Answer: The area of the rug is 224 square decimeters.

Explanation:

Hi, to find the area of the rug we have to apply the next formula:

• A = L x W

Where:

A= Area of a rectangle

L = Length (16dm)

W= Width (14dm)

Replacing the variables with the values given:

• A = 16 dm x 14 dm = 224 square decimeters

In conclusion, the area of the rug is 224 square decimeters.
