Answer:
A = ¹⁰⁷⁵/₁₆ = 67 ³/₁₆
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of a rectangle: A = b*h, where b = length of base and h = length of height
Plug in: A = 8 ¹/₄ * 10 ³/₄
Turn to improper fraction: A = ²⁵/₄ * ⁴³/₄
Multiply: A = ¹⁰⁷⁵/₁₆ = 67 ³/₁₆
88 [tex]\frac{11}{16}[/tex]
The area of a rug is found by multiplying b*h. Just multiply 8 1/4 by 10 3/4 to get 88 11/16.
