What is the area of the figure length 75cm and width 48cm
The area of the figure is:
75cm x 48cm = 3,600cm²
To find the area of a figure, we multiply its length by its width. In this case, the length is 75 cm and the width is 48 cm. So, to find the area:
Area = Length × Width
Substituting the given values:
Area = 75 cm × 48 cm
To multiply two numbers, we can set up a multiplication table:
7 5
× 4 8
____________
We start by multiplying the units digits: 5 × 8 = 40. Write down the 0, and carry the 4 over to the tens column.
7 5
× 4 8
____________
4
Next, multiply the tens digits: 7 × 8 = 56. Add the carried 4 from the previous step: 56 + 4 = 60. Write down the 6, and carry the 6 over to the hundreds column.
7 5
× 4 8
____________
6 0
Finally, multiply the hundreds digits: 7 × 4 = 28. Add the carried 6 from the previous step: 28 + 6 = 34. Write down the 34.
7 5
× 4 8
____________
3 4 0
So, the area of the figure is 3,400 cm².
