To calculate the area of a rectangle, you have to multiply the length by the height, following the formula:

$A=l\cdot h$

For the given rectangle, the length is l=16in and the height is h=6in, calculate the area as follows:

$\begin{gathered} A=l\cdot h \\ A=16\cdot6 \\ A=96in^2 \end{gathered}$

The area of the rectangle is 96 square inches.
