Answer 1

Answer:

• B
• D

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a rectangle

• Base x Height

Rectangle B

• 3/8 x 5/3 = 15/24 square inches

Rectangle D

• 5/4 x 3/6 = 15/24 square inches

Answer 2

Answer:

Options B and D

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:  Determine the area of Option A

$A = l * w$

$A = (5/8\ in) * (10/3\ in)$

$A = 50/24\ in^2$
$A = 25/12\ in^2$

Step 2:  Determine the area of Option B

$A = l * w$

$A = (5/3\ in) * (3/8\ in)$

$A = 15/24\ in^2$

Step 3:  Determine the area of Option C

$A = l * w$

$A = (8/6\ in) * (7/4\ in)$

$A = 56/24\ in^2$

$A = 7/3\ in^2$

Step 4:  Determine the are of Option D

$A = l * w$

$A = (3/6\ in) * (5/4\ in)$

$A = 15/24\ in^2$

Step 5:  Determine the area of Option E

$A = l * w$

$A = (5/15\ in) * (3/9\ in)$

$A = 15/135\ in^2$

$A = 1/9\ in^2$

Answer:  Options B and D
