Question

The area of the given rectangle is sq cm.

• A. $15\frac{3}{4}$
• B. $16\frac{1}{4}$
• C. $18\frac{3}{4}$
• D. $17\frac{2}{4}$

Answer 1

The correct option is C $18\frac{3}{4}$

$\text{Area of a rectangle =}Length\times Breadth$

In the given figure,
$\text{length =}6\frac{1}{4}cm$

and

$\text{breadth =}3cm$

∴ Area of the given rectangle =
$3\times 6\frac{1}{4}=(3\times 6)+3\times \frac{1}{4}$

$=18+\frac{3\times 1}{4}$

$=18+\frac{3}{4}$

$=18\frac{3}{4}$

Hence, the area of the given rectangle is
$18\frac{3}{4}sqcm$.
