Question

The length of a flower bed is four times as long as it’s with if the width is 3/8 m what is the area

Answer 1

0.5625m squared

Explanation:

3/8 multiplied by 4 = 1.5 + 3/8

make 3/8 into a decimal

3/8=0.375

0.375 multiplied by 1.5 = 0.5625

Answer 2

6.0546999969 feet is the area or 1.84547255905512 meters. (simplify if needed)

Explanation:

a meter is 3.28084 feet and 3.28084/8 = 0.410105 and 0.410105 times 3 to get the 3/8 of the meter you get 1.230315 foot. If the length is 4 times this than 1.230315 * 4 = 4.92126 (aka the length) If this is the length than multiply it to the width to get the area. 4.92126 * 1.230315 = 6.0546999969 which is the answer.
