two rectangles are drawn with calk the first rectangle has a length of 1.5 meters and a width of 0.75 the second rectangle has a length of 1.75 meters and width of 0.5 meters what is the diffrence between the area and the rectangles?
To find the difference in the area of the two rectangles, we first need to calculate the area of each rectangle.
For the first rectangle:
Area = Length x Width
Area = 1.5m x 0.75m
Area = 1.125 square meters
For the second rectangle:
Area = Length x Width
Area = 1.75m x 0.5m
Area = 0.875 square meters
Now, we can find the difference in the area of the two rectangles:
Difference = Area of first rectangle - Area of second rectangle
Difference = 1.125 square meters - 0.875 square meters
Difference = 0.25 square meters
Therefore, the difference in the area of the two rectangles is 0.25 square meters.
