A rectangle that measures 2 feet by 11 feet. What is the area of the rectangle? square feet

22 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of rectangle = L*W

= 2*11

= 22 ft

22 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that the area of a rectangle is defined as the product of its base times its eight. The formula for calculating such area is therefore:

Area of rectangle = base x height

In your case, given that the two dimension they provide are 2 feet and 11 feet, let; s assume that the base of the rectangle is 11 feet, and the height of the rectangle is 2 feet. Then we can use the formula above to give the requested area:

Area of rectangle = base x height

Area of the rectangle = 11 feet x 2 feet

Area of the rectangle = 22 square feet

(notice that we have not only to multiply the numerical quantities 11 and 2, but also multiply the units that come associated with those, and those are "feet" that multiplies by itself rendering square feet.
