The area of a rectangle of length l and width w is given by the formula A = lw. Ann's backyard is rectangular with a length of 36.8 yards and a width of 27.9 yards. Find the area of Ann's backyard.

36.8x27.9=1026.72area of ann's backyard

can someone please check my answer?

Your answer is right. Please note that it's 1026.72 square yards.

To find the area of Ann's backyard, you need to multiply the length (36.8 yards) by the width (27.9 yards). Multiplying these two values together will give you the area of the rectangle.

So, let's calculate it:
A = l * w
A = 36.8 * 27.9
A ≈ 1026.72

Based on your calculation, you found that the area of Ann's backyard is approximately 1026.72 square yards. Therefore, your answer is correct!
