To determine the area of the given figure, we first identify the shape as a trapezoid.

Trapezoid Area Formula:

The area $A$ of a trapezoid is given by:

$A = \frac{1}{2} \times (b_1 + b_2) \times h$

Where:

• $b_1$ and $b_2$ are the lengths of the parallel sides (bases),
• $h$ is the height of the trapezoid.

Given Measurements:

1. Base 1 $b_1 = \frac{3}{8} \, \text{yd}$
2. Base 2 $b_2 = \frac{7}{8} \, \text{yd}$
3. Height $h = \frac{1}{3} \, \text{yd}$

Step 1: Add the Bases

$b_1 + b_2 = \frac{3}{8} + \frac{7}{8} = \frac{10}{8} = \frac{5}{4}$

Step 2: Apply the Formula

Substitute the values into the area formula:

$A = \frac{1}{2} \times (b_1 + b_2) \times h$

$A = \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{5}{4} \times \frac{1}{3}$

Step 3: Simplify

Multiply the fractions step-by-step:

$A = \frac{1 \cdot 5 \cdot 1}{2 \cdot 4 \cdot 3}$

$A = \frac{5}{24} \, \text{yd}^2$

Step 4: Compare to the Options

The given options are expressed in improper fractions. Converting $\frac{5}{24}$ to match the closest option, we check:

None of the options match exactly based on my calculation. Please clarify if the values were typed or interpreted differently.
