Answer:

The area is 11.7cm²

The perimeter is 14.9cm

Explanation:

AREA OF A RECTANGLE

A = L × B

A =


2 (1)/(4) * 5 (1)/(5)

A =


(9)/(4) * (26)/(5)

A = 234/20

A = 11.7cm²

PERIMETER OF A RECTANGLE

P = 2(L + B)

P =2( 2¼ + 5^1/5)

P = 2(9/4 + 26/5)

P = 2(


(45 + 104)/(20) = (149)/(20)

P = 2(149/20)

p = 298/20

p = 14.9cm

i hope this helps
