Find the total area.
11 in. 7 in. 8 in. 5 in. 8 in. 3 ft.
To find the total area, we need to determine the areas of each individual shape and then add them together.
1. Area of a rectangle: The area of a rectangle is calculated by multiplying its length by its width.
- The first rectangle has dimensions of 11 inches by 7 inches: Area = 11 in * 7 in = 77 square inches.
- The second rectangle has dimensions of 8 inches by 5 inches: Area = 8 in * 5 in = 40 square inches.
- The third rectangle has dimensions of 8 inches by 3 feet. Since the dimensions are in different units, we need to convert them to the same unit before calculating the area.
- 1 foot = 12 inches, so 3 feet = 3 * 12 = 36 inches.
- Area = 8 in * 36 in = 288 square inches.
2. Now, let's add up the areas of all the shapes to find the total area:
Total Area = 77 square inches + 40 square inches + 288 square inches
Total Area = 405 square inches.
Therefore, the total area is 405 square inches.
3 feet = 36 inches
Now add all of them together. What answer do you get?
