1 answer

The area of a rectangle is calculated by multiplying its length by its width.

In this case, the length of the rectangle (left side) is 7 units and the width of the rectangle (top side) is 6 units.

Therefore, the area of the poster is:

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

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