Answer: [tex]150ft^2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

length: [tex]7\frac{1}{2}in[/tex] Convert to an improper fraction. [tex]\frac{7*2+1}{2}=\frac{15}{2}[/tex]

width: [tex]5 in[/tex]

[tex]Formula: A=w*l[/tex]

[tex]A=(5in)(\frac{15}{2}in)\\A=\frac{75}{2}in^2[/tex]

Convert to ft. I assume your conversion factor is [tex]\frac{1}{2}in. : 1ft[/tex]. However, the unit we need is squared. Square both sides.

[tex](\frac{1}{2}in.)^2 : (1ft)^2[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{4}in^2 : 1ft^2[/tex]

Convert.

[tex]\frac{75}{2}in^2(\frac{1ft^2}{\frac{1}{4}in^2 } )=[/tex]

Invert the fraction in the denominator and multiply it by the numerator.

[tex]\frac{75}{2}in^2*1ft^2*4in^-^2=75*2ft^2=150ft^2[/tex]
