Question

Estimate the area of a rectangle with a base length of 3.4 inches and a height of 5.9 inchesA). 15 in^2B). 9 in^2C). 18 in^2D). 24 in^2

Answer 1

`\text{ Area=18 in}^2`

Explanation:

The area of a rectangle is represented as:

`\text{Area}=\text{base}\cdot\text{height}`

Therefore, if we have a base length of 3.4 approximated to 3 inches and a height of 5.9 approximated to 6 inches:

`\begin{gathered} \text{ Area=}3\cdot6 \\ \text{ Area=18 in}^2 \end{gathered}`
