A rectangle is 1/2 ft long and 3/4 ft wide. What is the area of the rectangle? Enter your answer as a fraction in the box.
Area of a rectangle = length x width
A = 1/2 x 3/4
A = 3/8 ft
The answer is 3/8 feet :)
Area is equal to width times height.
Height = .5 feet
Width = .75 feet
Area = (.75)(.5)= .375 feet^2
Area is always measured as a unit of measure squared.
