Question

Matt is framing his favorite poster.The poster is 30 inches wide and 50 inches long. How many square inches of glass will he need to frame the poster ?

Answer 1

I believe that you just have to multiply 30 and 50 which will equal to 1,500 square inches of glass.

Answer 2

You need to find the area, so we know that the formula for the area of a rectangle is A=lw, so we need to set up the equation.
A=lw
A=50*30
A=1500 square inches of glass
