Question

What is the area of an rectangle with sides lengths of 5/12 foot and 2/3 foot​

Answer 1

The area of given rectangle is 5/18 square feet.

Explanation:

Let l be the length of rectangle and w be the width of the rectangle.

Given information is:

Length = l = 5/12 foot

Width = w = 2/3 foot

The area of a rectangle is given by the formula

`Area = Length*Width\\A = l*w`

Putting the values for width and length

`A = (5)/(12) * (2)/(3)\\= (10)/(36)\\=(5)/(18)`

The area is 5/18 square feet.

Hence,

The area of given rectangle is 5/18 square feet.
