PLEASE ANSWER!! 16 POINTS!

A rectangle has a base of 2.3 cm and a height of 4.5 cm. Use the formula for the area of a rectangle, A=bh , to determine the area.

Let b = 2.3 and h = 4.5.

What numbers complete the equation?

A = ? ⋅ ?

Please help and please explain details!!

Answer 1

A = b*h is the given equation. We simply replace b with 2.3 and replace h with 4.5

This is because b = 2.3 and h = 4.5 are the base and height respectively

So the equation would be A = 2.3*4.5

Edit: Multiply the numbers and we get the area to be A = 10.35
