Question

Mason has a map of Alabama that measures 3/4 meter wide and 7/8 meter long . What is the area in square meters of mason map

Answer 1

`\sf\large\underline{\star Given:-}`

`\rightarrow` Length(l) of map =
`\sf\red{(7)/(8)m.}`

`\rightarrow` Width(w) of map =
`\sf\red{(3)/(4)m.}`

`\sf\large\underline{\star To \: Find:-}`

`\rightarrow` Area of map.

`\sf\large\underline{\star Solution:-}`

`\rightarrow` From the above given dimensions we can conclude that map is in the shape of rectangle. So, we can find the area of map by using the formula:
`\sf\blue{Length×Width}`

So, let's begin

`\rightarrow` Area of rectangular map =
`\sf{Length×Width}`(putting the value of length and width from the above given)

`\rightarrow`
`\sf{=\:(7)/(8)×(3)/(4)}`

`\rightarrow`
`\sf{=\:(21)/(32)m^2}` Or,

`\rightarrow`
`\sf{=\: 0.65m^2}`

Therefore the area of the Mason map
`\sf\purple{=\: 0.65m^2}`or
`\sf\purple{(21)/(32)m^2}`
