The green carpet is 5 feet wide by 2 feet long, and therefore, it has an area of blank (10 feet^2, 7 feet ^2, 10 feet, 7 feet).

Question

The blue carpet is 2 feet wide by 5 feet long. Its area is blank (larger than, the same as, smaller than) the area of the green carpet.

Answer 1

The area of the green carpet can be calculated as follows:

Area = width × length = 5 feet × 2 feet = 10 square feet.

The blue carpet has the dimensions of 2 feet wide by 5 feet long, so its area is calculated as:

Area = width × length = 2 feet × 5 feet = 10 square feet.

Therefore, the areas of both carpets are the same, which is 10 square feet.

So, for the green carpet, the area is 10 feet² (fill in the blank). And for the comparison, the area of the blue carpet is the same as the area of the green carpet.
