Question

The length of a rectangle is 1 7/9 inches and its width is 3/4 of its length. Find the area of this rectangle.

Answer 1

Area = 2 10/27 inch²

Explanation:

Length: 1 7/9 inches

Width: (3/4)(1 7/9 inches)

Area = Length × Width

Area = (1 7/9 inches) × (3/4)(1 7/9 inches)

Area = 16/9 inches × 16/9 inches × 3/4

Area = 768/324 inch²

Area = 256/108 inch²

Area = 128/54 inch²

Area = 64/27 inch²

Area = 2 10/27 inch²
