(1 point)
To find the area of a rectangle, we multiply the length by the width.
In this case, the length of the rectangle is 6 centimeters and the width is 3 centimeters.
So, the area of the rectangle is 6 cm * 3 cm = 18 square centimeters.
Therefore, the area of the rectangle is 18 square centimeters.
