Answer: "[tex] \frac{2}{15} [/tex] in² " . {that is: " (2/15) in² . "}.
___________________________________________
Explanation:
___________________________________________
The formula/equation for the Area of a rectangle:
A = L * w ;
in which: L = ⅖ in ;
w = ⅓ in;
___________________________
Find the area; in a "fraction value" ;
_______________________________
A = L * w ;
→ Substitute the given values for "L" (length) and "w" (width);
and solve for "A" (area) in the "form of a fraction:
__________________________________________________
A = (2/15) in * (1/3) in ;
→ A = [(2*1) / (5*3)] * in * in ;
______________________________________________________
→ Answer: The area is: " [tex] \frac{2}{15} [/tex] in² " .
{that is, "(2/15) in² " .}.
