Question

MAUDE hang three pictures on her wall each picture measures 8“ x 10“ what is the total area of the wall covered by the picture

Answer 1

area is length * width, right?
so 3 times that ...

Answer 2

Sorry for being late, but if you don't know what oobleck meant, then I think oobleck meant that if the area is length x width, you should to 8 x 10, which is 80, then 80 x 3 which is 240, so your answer is possibly 240.
Hope this could help.
