Question

find the area of each rectangle with the given base and height. 6. 28 in., 2 yd

Explanation:

Step1: Convert units

First, convert 2 yards to inches. Since 1 yard = 36 inches, then 2 yards = 2×36 = 72 inches.

Step2: Use area formula

The area formula for a rectangle is $A = b\times h$, where $b$ is the base and $h$ is the height. Here, $b = 28$ inches and $h = 72$ inches. So $A=28\times72$.
$A = 2016$ square - inches.

Answer:

2016 square - inches
