Calculate the area of a 3.0 inch by 5.0 inch index card in square millimeters (mm). (you can look up the formula for the area of a rectangle.)

The area of the given rectangular index card = 9677.4 mm²    

Explanation:

Area is defined as the space occupied by a two dimensional shape or object. The SI unit of area is square metre (m²).

The area of a rectangle (A) =  length (l) × width (w)

Given dimensions of the rectangle: Length (l) = 5.0 inch, Width (w) = 3.0 inch

Since, 1 inch = 25.4 millimetres (mm)

Therefore, l = 5 × 25.4 = 127 mm, and w = 3 × 25.4 = 76.2 mm

Therefore, the area of the given rectangular index card = A= l × w = 127 mm × 76.2 mm = 9677.4 mm²
