Question

Karlie painted a portrait. The height of the portrait measures 14 inches. The width is half as long as the height. What is the area of the portrait

Answer 1

14 times 7, so 98 square inches

The answer is 98 because half of 14 is 7 (14/2). And since 10*7=70 and 4*7=28, 70+28=98. There is your answer. And explained.
