Given that the length of a rectangle is 30 inches and its width is 12 inches, you need to use the formula for calculating the area of a rectangle:
[tex]A=lw[/tex]Where "l" is the length and "w" is the width of the rectangle.
In this case:
[tex]\begin{gathered} l=30\text{ }in \\ w=12\text{ }in \end{gathered}[/tex]Then, you can substitute values into the formula and evaluate:
[tex]A=(30\text{ }in)(12\text{ }in)[/tex][tex]A=360\text{ }in^2[/tex]Hence, the answer is:
[tex]A=360\text{ }in^2[/tex]
