Question

A stamp has the Length of 1/2 cm and a width of 1 1/2 is the area of the stamps

Answer 1

`Area = (3)/(4) cm^2`

Explanation:

Given

`Length =(1)/(2)\ cm`

`Width = 1(1)/(2)\ cm`

Required

Determine the Area

Area is calculated as follows

`Area = Length * Width`

Substitute values for Length and Width

`Area = (1)/(2) * 1(1)/(2)`

Convert mixed fraction

`Area = (1)/(2) * (3)/(2)`

`Area = (3)/(4)`

Hence, the area is

`Area = (3)/(4) cm^2`
