Answer:

80

Explanation:

im not trying to copy the answer above, im just going to say why its 80

so firstly we have the known dimensions of 10 by 8, so in this case we have 10 rows that each contain 8 units

we can then multiply the 8 units of one row, by the amount of rows there are total (in this case 10) to get the total unit count, or area

8 * 10 = 80

(NOTE: you can use the Asterisk (*) as a multiplication mark as to not get it confused with x as in the variable, as with slash (/) for dividing)

hope this helps with this and other problems, credits to the answer above for doing the initial work :)
