Question

John is building a tabletop. The dimensions of the tabletop are shown below. How many square feet will the table top be? Simplify your answer Completley [ ?] ft² 3 1/9 ft36/7 ft

Answer 1

Answer:

The table top is 12 ft²

Explanations:

The table top is rectangular in shape

`\begin{gathered} \text{Length of the tabletop = 3}(6)/(7)\text{ Ft = }(27)/(7)\text{ Ft} \\ \text{Width of the tabletop }=\text{ 3}(1)/(9)\text{ Ft = }(28)/(9)\text{ Ft} \end{gathered}`

The square feet of the tabletop will be known by calculating the area

Area of a rectangle = Length x Width

`\begin{gathered} \text{Area = }(27)/(7)*(28)/(9) \\ \text{Area = 3 }*\text{ 4} \\ \text{Area = 12 Ft}^2 \end{gathered}`
