Answer:

432 inch square

Explanation:

The total material used to make a kite should be equal to the area of the kite. You can find the area of a kite by multiplying the width with length, then divide it by two. The formula will be:

area = length x width /2

area= 18 in * 16 in /2= 144 inch square.

The area of one kite is 144 inch square, then the area for 3 kites will be: 3 * 144 inch square = 432 inch square
