Answer 1

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

B 23.375 in.2

To find the total area of the paper, multiply the length by the width:
11 in. * 8.5 in. = 93.5 in.2

Since Tabitha cut the paper into 4 equal pieces, each piece would have an area equal to:
93.5 in.2 / 4 = 23.375 in.2

Therefore, the area of each rectangular piece of paper Tabitha cut is 23.375 in.2.
