Look at the rectangle ABCD below.
Side AB is 6 cm long and side BC is 4 cm long.
What is the area of the rectangle?
Remember that the formula for the area of a rectangle is width times height
We are given that the width of the rectangle is 6
and that the length of the rectangle is 4
Therefore we calculate:
6*4=24
24 cm²
