Given that the length of a rectangle is 30 inches and its width is 12 inches, you need to use the formula for calculating the area of a rectangle:


A=lw

Where "l" is the length and "w" is the width of the rectangle.

In this case:


\begin{gathered} l=30\text{ }in \\ w=12\text{ }in \end{gathered}

Then, you can substitute values into the formula and evaluate:


A=(30\text{ }in)(12\text{ }in)
A=360\text{ }in^2

Hence, the answer is:


A=360\text{ }in^2
