Nathan is building a toolshed with a rectangular floor. the area of a rectangle is given by the formula l⋅w, where l represents the length, and w represents the width. the floor of the shed will have measurements of either l=8 and w=6 or l=7 and w=7. what is the area of the larger floor?

Here, l is the length of the rectangle and w is the width of the rectangle

To Compare the values, you must calculate each given situation.

Area of a rectangle is equal to  length times width.

i.e,

(A)

if l = 8 units and w= 6 units,

then;

=

(B)

if l =7 units  and w = 7 units

=  

Therefore, the Part B would yield a larger area.

If l -7 units and w = 7 units , the area of larger floor is 49 square units.

answer is  

a.

93.98 sq. in.

hope you got it chief
