Question

Find the area of the rectangle with length 12 1/3 m and width 1 1/3m A. 12 1/9 m2B. 16 1/9 m2C. 13 1/3 m2D. 16 4/9 m2

Answer 1

We have the following:

the area of a rectangle is the multiplication of the length by the width

$A=L\cdot W$

replacing:

$\begin{gathered} L=12\frac{1}{3}=\frac{37}{3} \\ W=1\frac{1}{3}=\frac{4}{3} \\ A=\frac{37}{3}\cdot\frac{4}{3}=\frac{148}{9} \\ A=16\frac{4}{9} \end{gathered}$

Therefore the answer is D. |6 4/9 m^2
