Question

A rectangular sheet of paper is 12 1/2 cm long and 10 2/3 cm wide. Find its area.​

Answer 1

$length = 12 \frac{1}{2} cm = \frac{25}{2} cm$

$breadth = 10 \frac{2}{3} cm = \frac{32}{3} cm$

$area \: of \: rectangle = l \times b$

$\: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: = \frac{25}{2}cm \times \frac{32}{3} cm$

$\: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: = \frac{400}{3} {cm}^{2}$
