Question

What is the area of a rectangle that is 2 meters long and 12 meters wide?

14 m2
24 m2
28 m2
42 m2

Answer 1

24m²

Explanation:

To find the area of a rectangle, we use the formula A = l * w or Area = length * width.

We know that our length is 2 meters and our width is 12 meters so we can plug these values into the formula to get our answer.

A = 2 * 12 = 24

Remember that area is measured in "square" units and must be raised to the 2nd power.

A = 24m²
