Answer 1

To find the area of a rectangle, you multiply its length by its width. In this case, the left side (height) of the poster measures 7 units and the top side (width) measures 6 units.

Area = length × width
Area = 7 units × 6 units
Area = 42 square units

Thus, the area of the completed poster is 42 square units.
