Question

A rectangular playground is 8 meters wide. It is 3 times as long as it is wide.what is the area?

Answer 1

breath of the rectangle play ground is 8m...let us take it has x
length is 3 times as long as breath...let us take it as y
then y=3x
y=3(8) since x=8
x=24
area of rectangle is product of its length and breath
it is 8×24
area of rectangle is 192

Answer 2

Answer:

$area = 192 m^{2}$

step-by-step explanation:

The measurement that represents the size of a location on a planar or curved surface is called area. Surface area refers to an area of an open surface or the boundary of a three-dimensional object, whereas the area of a plane section or planar area corresponds to the area of a form or planar lamina. Area can be interpreted as the quantity of material with a specific thickness required to create a model of the shape or as the quantity of paint required to completely cover a surface in a single coat. It is the two-dimensional equivalent of the volumes of a substance or the length of a curve.

A two-dimensional shape's area is the interior blank space. The quantity of space that a shape occupies is another way to define area. When calculating a rectangle's surface, we multiplied the length by the width of the rectangle.

Area of rectangle = length × width

width of a rectangular playground $=8m$

$length = 3*8 m$

           $= 24 m$

$area = l*w$

        $= 8*24$

        $= 192 m^2$

Therefore, the area $= 192 m^2$
