    Step-by-step explanation:

    The watercolor painting is rectangular. It has a length of 16 inches and a width of 11 inches.

    The formula for determining the area of a rectangle is expressed as

    Area = length * width

    If a border whose width is 1 inch is added to the length and width of the watercolor painting to make a mat, then the length of the mat is

    16 + 1 + 1 = 18 inches

    The width of the mat is

    11 + 1 + 1 = 13 inches

    Area if mat = 18 * 13 = 234 square inches

    234 Square Inches

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Length of the Painting=16 in

    Width of the Painting = 11 inch

    Since the mat adds 1 inch to each side of the length and the width.

    Therefore:

    Length of the mat=16+1+1=18 Inch

    Width of the Mat=11+1+1=13 Inch

    Area of the Mat = Length X Width

    =18X13=234 Square Inches
