Answer:

169/12 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:  Convert the mixed fractions into improper fractions by multiplying the denominator by the whole number, then adding the numerator.  Keep the original denominator.

3 1/4   becomes    [4(3) + 1]/4    which simplifies to 13/4

4 1/3  becomes    [3(4) + 1]/3    which simplifies to 13/3

Step 2:  These are sides of the rectangle, so multiply them together to find the area...

(13/4)(13/3)  =   (13*13)/(4*3)  =  169/12            

Answer:169/12 = 13 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

3 1/4 = 13/4

4 1/3 = 13/3

area = 13/4 *13/3 = 169/12 = 14 1/12
