a model for a proposed computer chip measures 3/4 inch by 1 1/4 help me find the area
.75 * 1.25 = ?
it makes no sents at all it's stupid
hey hall
To find the area of the computer chip, you need to multiply the length by the width.
The measurements you provided are 3/4 inch by 1 1/4 inch.
To multiply fractions, you multiply the numerators (top numbers) together to get the new numerator, and multiply the denominators (bottom numbers) together to get the new denominator.
So, let's multiply:
Numerator:
3/4 × 1 = 3
Denominator:
4 × 4 = 16
Therefore, the area of the computer chip is 3/16 square inches.
