To find the area of the dog park, we can use the formula for the area of a rectangle, \( A = lw \), where \( l \) is the length and \( w \) is the width.

From the information provided, we can identify the following dimensions:
- Length (\( l \)): 250 ft
- Width (\( w \)): 125 ft

Now, we can plug these values into the formula:

\[
A = lw
\]
\[
A = (250 \, \text{ft})(125 \, \text{ft})
\]
\[
A = 31,250 \, \text{ft}^2
\]

Therefore, the blanks can be filled in as follows:

A = lw
A = (250)(125)
= 31,250 ft²

So the complete answer is:

A = lw
A = (250)(125)
= 31,250 ft²
