Find the area using A = 1 * W. Mr. Janacek's class is doing an art projec with different-colored squares. How many 1-inch squares can be cut from an 18-inch by 24-inch piece of construction paper?

Respuesta :

We have the following:

The area is

[tex]A=L\cdot W[/tex]

L (long) is 24 inch and W (wide) is 18 inch, replacing:

[tex]\begin{gathered} A=24\cdot18 \\ A=432 \end{gathered}[/tex]

The area is 432 squares inch, therefore:

[tex]\frac{432}{1}=432[/tex]

Therefore a total of 432 1-inch squares can be cut
