Math Problem Statement

What is the area of the rectangle with dimensions 4 cm and 2 cm?

Solution

The question asks for the area of a rectangle with the dimensions 4 cm and 2 cm.

To find the area of a rectangle, we use the formula:

Area=Length×Width\text{Area} = \text{Length} \times \text{Width}

Given:

  • Length = 4 cm
  • Width = 2 cm

Area=4cm×2cm=8cm2\text{Area} = 4 \, \text{cm} \times 2 \, \text{cm} = 8 \, \text{cm}^2

So, the area of the rectangle is 8 cm².
