what is the area of a rectangle with a width of 12 feet and a length of 10?
Area = length X width
12 X 10
Area = length TIMES width or in short
A = LW
======================================
A = 10 x 12
A = 120feet^2
NOTE: Area is always measured in squared units.
Done!
120
To find the area of a rectangle, you need to multiply its length by its width. In this case, the width is given as 12 feet and the length is given as 10 feet.
So, to find the area, simply multiply the width (12) by the length (10):
Area = Length × Width
= 10 ft × 12 ft
= 120 square feet
Therefore, the area of the rectangle is 120 square feet.
