The area of a square or rectangle is length × width. It changes because the answers to the multiplication problems are different. 3 × 5= 15, while 5 × 5= 25. Because one of the numbers you have to multiply are different in each problem, you'll have a different answer each time.

Each area will be different every time because the length and the width will be different
