What was the area of the canvas which was covered by the red rose?
0.4 * (20 * 38) = _________ square inches
Hello, I would agree with Ms. Sue. Good day, Jeremias.
Kendra has a painting canvas that is 20 inches wide by 30 inches high. She painted a red rose, which covered 30% of the canvas.
What was the area of the canvas which was covered by the red rose?
To find the area of the canvas covered by the red rose, we need to calculate 40% of the total area of the canvas.
Step 1: Find the total area of the canvas
The area of a rectangle can be calculated by multiplying its length by its width. In this case, the width of the canvas is 20 inches and the height is 38 inches. So, the total area of the canvas is 20 inches * 38 inches = 760 square inches.
Step 2: Calculate 40% of the total area
To find 40% of the total area, multiply the total area (760 square inches) by 0.40 (equivalent to 40%). So, 760 square inches * 0.40 = 304 square inches.
Therefore, the area of the canvas covered by the red rose is 304 square inches.
