Answer : 1⅖ft.²
Given :-
- Print is 7/8 ft wide and 1⅗ ft long .
To Find :-
Here the length of the print is 1⅗ ft . So on converting this into improper fraction , we have ;
→ length = 1⅗ ft = (5*1+3)/5 ft = (5+3)/5ft = 8/5ft.
Also ,
→ breadth = 7/8ft .
We know that the area of a rectangle is ,
→ Area = length * breadth
On substituting the respective values,
→ Area = 8/5 ft. * 7/8ft
→ Area = 7/5 ft.²
After converting improper fraction into mixed fraction ,
→ Area = 1⅖ ft² .
Henceforth the area of the print is 1⅖ft.² .
I hope this helps.
