Answer:
[tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] square feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The dimensions of the photo is 4/5 by 1 7/8 of a foot.
But,
1 7/8 = [tex]\frac{15}{8}[/tex] feet
So that,
length of the photo = [tex]\frac{15}{8}[/tex] feet
width of the photo = [tex]\frac{4}{5}[/tex] feet
The area of the photo = length x width
= [tex]\frac{15}{8}[/tex] x [tex]\frac{4}{5}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{60}{40}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex]
Area of the painted photo is [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] square feet.
