Step 1:

Write the dimensions of the rectangle

Length = 4 feet

Wide = 3 feet

Step 2:

Next, convert feet to inches

12 inches = 1 feet

Length = 4 feet = 4 x 12 = 48 inches

Wide = 3 feet = 3 x 12 = 36 inches

Step 3

Find the area of the rectangular poster


\begin{gathered} \text{Area of the rectangular poster = Length }*\text{ Width} \\ =\text{ 48 }*\text{ 36} \\ =1728in^2 \end{gathered}

Final answer

1728 square inches
