Problema Solution

Cecilia hired an artist to paint a mural on the wall in her two sons bedroom. dimensions 4ns of the mural must 1/2 Feet by 8 3/4 Feet. What is the area of the mural?

Answer provided by our tutors

We will assume the mural's area is rectangular.

The area of rectangle A = Width*Length thus we have:

A = (1/2)*(8 3/4)

A = (1/2)*(8*4 + 3)/4

A = (1/2)*(35/4)

A = 35/8

A = 4.375 ft^2

The area of the mural is 4.375 ft^2.
