Cara and Bijan make a poster for school. The poster is in a shape of a rectangle. The left side of the poster measure 7 inch. The top of the poster measures six units. What is the area in square units of the completed poster

1 answer

To find the area of a rectangle, you multiply the length by the width. In this case, the dimensions of the poster are:

  • Length: 7 inches
  • Width: 6 inches

Now, calculating the area:

\[ \text{Area} = \text{Length} \times \text{Width} = 7 , \text{inches} \times 6 , \text{inches} \]

\[ \text{Area} = 42 , \text{square inches} \]

So, the area of the completed poster is 42 square inches.
