What is the area of a rectangle with a length of 3 ft and a width of 16.1 ft?

A. 49.3 m²
B. [tex]38.2 \, \text{ft}^2[/tex]
C. [tex]24.15 \pi^2[/tex]
D. [tex]19.1 \, \text{ft}^2[/tex]

Answer :

To find the area of a rectangle, you can use the formula:

[tex]\[ \text{Area} = \text{Length} \times \text{Width} \][/tex]

In this case, you have:

- Length = 3 ft
- Width = 16.1 ft

Now, calculate the area by multiplying the length and the width:

[tex]\[ \text{Area} = 3 \, \text{ft} \times 16.1 \, \text{ft} = 48.3 \, \text{ft}^2 \][/tex]

Therefore, the area of the rectangle is [tex]\( 48.3 \, \text{ft}^2 \)[/tex]. The correct option is not listed among the given choices.
