What is the area of a rectangle with a width of (1)/(3) yd and a length of (9)/(10) yd
A. 9/30
B.30/9
C.10/13
D.27/10
(1/3) * (9/10) = ?
To find the area of a rectangle, you simply multiply its width by its length.
In this case, the width of the rectangle is (1/3) yd and the length is (9/10) yd.
To multiply fractions, you multiply the numerators together and the denominators together. Therefore, the area of the rectangle is:
(1/3) yd * (9/10) yd = (1 * 9) / (3 * 10) yd² = 9/30 yd²
However, we can simplify the fraction. Both 9 and 30 can be divided by 3:
9/30 = (9/3) / (30/3) = 3/10
So, the area of the rectangle is 3/10 square yards, or 0.3 square yards.
