Answer:

18 squares

Explanation:

We know that the quilt that Chad's mother has made is shaped like a rectangle.

The rectangular quilt has 6 squares across it and 3 squares down. Or we can say the quilt has 6 columns (squares) and 3 rows (squares).

So to find out how many squares are there in the quilt, we will multiply the number of squares across the quilt with the number of squares down the quilt.

Total number of squares = 6 x 3 = 18

Answer

18 squares are in the rectangle quilt.

Step by step explanation

The quilt has 6 squares across and 3 squares down.

It is in rectangle shaped.

Therefore, the length = 6 and width = 3

Area of a rectangle = length *width

The area of rectangle quilt = length * width

Now plug in length = 6 and width = 3 in the above formula, we get

= 6 * 3

= 18 squares.

Therefore, 18 squares are in the rectangle quilt.

Thank you.
