Multi-step: Maria makes a quilt with a width of 2.7 meters. The length is 3.2 times the width. The area of a rectangle is the length times the width of the rectangle. What is the area of Maria's quilt?

The width is 2.7 metres, and 3.2 * 2.7 = 8.64 is the length.

Therefore, area of the rectangle is 2.7 * 8.64 which will come to 23.328 metres squared.

If you need to round to two decimal places, it's 23.33.
