Question

Elena wants to put a new layer of soil in her garden. She needs to know the area of her garden so that she knows how much soil to buy. If the garden is 14 meters by 6 meters, how much area does she need to cover? 10 points

Answer 1

l = length

w = width

Area of a rectangle = l * w

Plug our numbers in

A = 14m * 6m.

Multiply the two values together

A = 84 square meters

She needs to cover 84 square meters of her garden
