Question

3/4 yard long and 1/2 yard tall what is the area of the poster frame

Answer 1

The area is 3/8 yd².

Area = length x width

Given:
length = 3/4 yard
width = 1/2 yard

Area = 3/4 yd * 1/2 yd
Area = 3*1/4*2
Area = 3/8 yd²

In multiplying fractions, multiply the numerators, then, multiply the denominators. lastly, simplify the fraction. 3/8 yd² is already in its simplest form.

Answer 2

Area = Length × Width

Area = ³₄ × ¹/₂

$Area = \frac{3}{4} \times \frac{1}{2}\\\\\boxed{\bf{Area = \frac{3}{8}}}$

The area of the poster frame is 3/8 yards².
