1. 48 SQUARE UNITS
2. 42 SQUARE UNITS
3. 26 SQUARE UNITS
4. 13 SQUARE UNITS
To find the area of a rectangle, you simply multiply the length by the width. In this case, the length is 7 units and the width is 6 units. So, the area of the completed poster would be:
7 units * 6 units = 42 square units
Therefore, the correct answer is:
2. 42 square units
