Question

. The dimensions of a large broken window are 122⁄3 feet wide and 81⁄3 feet tall. How many square feet of glass are required to replace the window?

Answer 1

We need
`1098` square feet of glass to replace the window.

Explanation:

Square feet is a measure of Area. We need to find the area of the window to find how many square feet of glass are required to replace the window.

Area of the window = Width * Length

=
`(122)/(3)*(81)/(3)`

=
`(122*81)/(3*3)`

=
`(9882)/(9)`

=
`1098` square feet.

Therefore we need
`1098` square feet of glass to replace the window.

Answer 2

Explanation:

we have to find the area of the window here.

we know,

Area=length x width

Here, length=122/3 and width=81/3 feet

So,

Area=length x width

=
`(122)/(3)*(81)/(3) =(122*81)/(3*3)=(9882)/(9)=1098`

So, the area is 1098 square feet.

Hence, the glass should be 1098 square feet
