Answer:

131 1/4 in.²

Explanation:

To find the area of the figure, you would have to divide the figure into two parts. The figure can be divided into two rectangles.

Rectangle 1

The length is 11 3/4 in. The width is 6 in.

A = lw

A = (11 3/4 in.)(6 in.)

A = 70 1/2 in.²

Rectangle 2

The length is 9 in. The width is 6 3/4 in.

A = lw

A = (9 in.)(6 3/4 in.)

A = 60 3/4 in.²

Add the two areas together.

70 1/2 in.² + 60 3/4 in.² = 131 1/4 in.²
