To solve this problem of finding the area of the triangle, we will use the standard formula for the area of a right triangle:

\[
\text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{base} \times \text{height}
\]

### Given:
- Base \( = 7 \) units
- Height \( = 6 \) units

### Step-by-step solution:

\[
\text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \times 7 \times 6 = \frac{1}{2} \times 42 = 21 \, \text{square units}
\]

Now, looking at the provided options:
- 35
- 20
- 31.8
- 23.3

The closest option to 21 is **20**.

Thus, the correct answer is **20**.
