Question

The area of a rectangle whose length is \(\frac{5}{8}~m\) and breadth is \(\frac{2}{15}~m\) is ___ \(m^2\).

Answer 1

Given, length = \(\frac{5}{8}~m\) and breadth = \(\frac{2}{15}~m\).

We know that, area of a rectangle of length \(l\) and breadth \(b\) is '\(l\times b\)'.

So, the area of the given rectangle = \(\frac{5}{8}~m\times \frac{2}{15}~m\)

=\(\frac{1}{12}~m^2\)
