a rectangle is 2 4/5 M wide and 3 and 1/2 meters long what is its area

Hey there!!
The area of a rectangle = Length × Breadth
Length is given by :
[tex]3\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Converting this into improper fraction would be :
[tex]\frac{7}{2}[/tex]
The breadth is given by :
[tex]2\frac{4}{5}[/tex]
Converting this into improper fraction, we get :
[tex]\frac{14}{5}[/tex]
Now, Area =
[tex]\frac{7}{2} * \frac{14}{5}[/tex]
Area = [tex]\frac{98}{10}[/tex]
Converting this into mixed fraction we get :
[tex]9\frac{8}{10}[/tex]
Hope my answer helps!!
