You just multiply both those numbers by two then add them together

Answer:

20x15=300

When you need to calculate the Length and Width of a piece of land or anything else, all you need to do is multiply the two numbers.

Explanation:

When you have 20 units of land in as the length and 15 units of land as width, then you should multiply.

2x4=?

When you do 2x4, you have to do 2+2+2+2=

but, here, you have a piece of land to calculate, so basically, you have to multiply still. In that way, you will be able to get what 20 and 15's product is.

I'm sorry, sometimes I just can't explain that well, but just remember, in these types of problems, just multiply, that is your answer.

Thank You! I hope I made your day just a little better!

Have a great time studying!
