Question

Emma tiled a rectangle and then sketched her work. Write a multiplication equation to find the area of Emma's rectangle?

I was wondering if I was correct (my work) -
A = l x w
A = 3 1/2 units x 2 units
A = 7 units

Answer 1

Answer:

$A=7 \: Square\: Units$

Step-by-step explanation:

From your work here, if the diagram corresponds with what was tiled, then:

Length of the Rectangle=$3\frac{1}{2} \:Units$

Width of the Rectangle =2 Units

We know that:

Area of a Rectangle = Length X Width

$=3\frac{1}{2} X 2\\A=7 \: Square\: Units$

The only thing wrong is the unit of the area given. The unit of area is supposed to be in Square Units.
