Explanation:

Step1: Count squares in garden model

The model has 6 columns and 4 rows: $6 \times 4 = 24$

Step2: State garden area

Area equals number of 1ft squares: $24$

Step3: Identify garden length

Given in problem: $6$

Step4: Identify garden width

Given in problem: $4$

Step5: State area calculation pair

Multiply length and width: $6 \times 4$

Step6: Calculate Rectangle A area

Count squares or multiply dimensions: $7 \times 4 = 28$

Step7: Calculate Rectangle B area

Count squares or multiply dimensions: $6 \times 3 = 18$

Step8: Fill table values

Use calculated and given values for each row.

Answer:

1. 24
2. 24
3. 6
4. 4
5. $6 \times 4$
6. Completed table:

Rectangle	Area	Length	Width	Product
A	28	7	4	$7 \times 4$
B	18	6	3	$6 \times 3$
Any	Any	$\ell$	$w$	$\ell \times w$
