The length of the rectangle is 3 times it width. The width size is given as 2 inches.
Therefore,
width = 2 inches
length = 3(2) = 6 inches
The area of the rectangle can be calculated below
[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{area}=\text{length}\times\text{width} \\ \text{area}=6\times2 \\ \text{area}=12inches^2 \end{gathered}[/tex]The answer is B.
