Find the area of a rectangle with length of 6 inches and width of 2 feet.

Solution:

The formula to find the area of a rectangle is

A = l × b

Where l is the length

b is the width

We know that

To substitute in the formula, we need to convert in the same unit.

1 feet = 12 inches

2 feet = 24 inches

It is given that

l = 6 inches

b = 2 feet = 24 inches

Substituting it in the formula

A = 6 × 24 = 144 inches² 

Therefore, the area of the rectangle is 144 inches².
