Question

javier is planning a rectangular rose garden. the garden will be 204 roses wide and 19 roses long. how many roses does he need for the garden? javier needs a total of roses for the garden. (type a whole number.)

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the operation

The area of a rectangle is length times width. Here, the number of roses is equivalent to the area of the rectangular - shaped rose - garden. So we need to multiply the width and the length.
$204\times19$

Step2: Perform the multiplication

$204\times19=(200 + 4)\times19=200\times19+4\times19=3800+76 = 3876$

Answer:

3876
