To find the area of the table, you multiply the length by the width.

Area = Length x Width
Area = 4.5 feet x 2.5 feet
Area = 11.25 square feet

Therefore, the area of the table is 11.25 square feet.
Theres no decimals in the equation 💀🙏

Answer the question
Apologies for that oversight. Let's convert the mixed numbers to fractions and then multiply:

Length = 4 1/2 = 9/2 feet
Width = 2 1/2 = 5/2 feet

Area = (9/2) x (5/2)
Area = (9 x 5) / (2 x 2)
Area = 45 / 4
Area = 11 1/4 square feet

Therefore, the area of the table is 11 1/4 square feet.
