Ezequiel · Answer 1

Area = 5/18 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the area of a rectangle, you need to multiply 5/12 and 2/3. You multiply the numerators and then multiply the denominators. Then you should get 10/36. This fraction can be simplified into 5/18. To do this find the greatest common factor of 10 and 36 (you'll get 2 as the GCF). Then divide 2 to both the numerator and denominator.
