If the length of a rectangle is 7/8 and the width is 1/4 of a meter then what is the area, a=lw, of the rectangle

7/32 square meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply the fractions. The numerators multiply to 7*1 = 7. The denominators multiply to 4*8 = 32. This is why (7/8)*(1/4) = 7/32. The units are "square meters" to indicate we're dealing with area instead of a linear measurement.

note: 7/32 = 0.21875

7/32 square meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a rectangle is A = L * W.

Here, that area is A = (7/8)(meter)(1/4)(meter) = 7/32 meter^2.

i think that the second is correct which is tanx = opposite ÷ adjacent
