Tanner made his aunt a garden. The width is 9 4/5 ft and the length is 5 3/4 ft. What is the area of the garden?

56.35 ft^2, or 56 7/20 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

One way of doing this problem quickly is to convert both measurements into improper fractions before multiplying them:

9 4/5 = 49/5 and 5 3/4 = 23/4.

Then the area of the garden is 49/5 times 23/4, or 1127/20 ft^2, or

56.35 ft^2, or 56 7/20 ft^2.

4/6=6/9

Step-by-step explanation:

They can both be simplified to 2/3
