Question

You're trying to help your learning coach arrange their new t.v. in the living room. The wall to place the t.v. on is 12 ft by 8 ft. The t.v. is 3 ft by 4 ft. Which equation represents the area of the wall taken up by the t.v.?

A:3+4=7ft2
B:12(3)+8(4)=area2
C:3*4=12 ft2

Answer 1

Answer: C 3*4= 12 ft^2

Explanation:

If the TV is 3 ft by 4 ft, then if you place it on the wall, it will cover an area of 12 ft on the wall. Area is multiplying the length by the width, so 3 by 4 is 12.
