Question

Wayne has a rectangular painting. The width of the painting is

5/6

of a foot, and the length is
3/4
of a foot. What is the area of the painting?

Answer 1

5/8 ft^2

Explanation:

The area of a rectangle is given by

A = l*w where l is the length and w is the width

A = 5/6 * 3/4

A = 3/6 * 5/4

A = 1/2 * 5/4

A = 5/8 ft^2
