To find the area of the pasture, we need to multiply the length by the width.
Length = 16x7
Width = 48x4
Area = Length x Width
Area = (16x7) x (48x4)
Using the distributive property to simplify:
Area = (16 x 48) x (7 x 4) [Multiplying the coefficients]
Area = 768 x 28
So, the area of the pasture is 768x28.
