1. What is the area of each square?

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a square is given by

Where A is area and b is the length of any side. This question has only one thing that is square in shape, the mat hence the question directly requires its area.

Given that the mat has square shape and has dimensions of 1.5 in each then the area will be

A=1.5*1.5=2.25 square inches

Therefore, the area is 2.25 square inches.

well there are two answers for that.

1: you need 120 ones then that will equal up to 120.

2: you could also do one 100 and 2 tens.

those are the answers that i have thought of.
