Lesson 28 multiply to find area answer key

Question

A rectangle has length of 8 meters and width of 7m, what is the area?

Answer:

56 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a rectangle is given as a product of its length and width hence expressed as

A=lw

Where l represent length, w is width and A is area.

Substituting 8 m for l and 7 m for w then

A=8m*7m=56 m²
