Avani is building a rectangular play area. The length of the play area is 7.5 meters. The width of the play area is 5.3 meters. If she wants to cover the area in foam, how much foam does she need to buy?

the answer would be 39.75 meters. That is the area of the rectangle because you take 7.5 multiplied by 5.3 then the area of the rectangle is 39.75m. She needs 39.75 meters of foam to cover the whole rectangle. if there is more to the question i'd love to help more.

area = L x W

area = 7.5 x 5.3 = 39.75 square feet of foam
