Mrs. williams is knitting a blanket for her new bork granddaughter. the blanket is 2.25 meters long and 1.8 meters wide. what is the area of the blanket? write the answer in centimeters.

The blanket's area is 40,500 cm²

Further Explanation

The blanket length is 2.25 m

                    width is 1.8 m

The blanket usually in rectangular shape, so to calculate the area of the blanket would be:

so the blanket's area is 4.05 m²

Here is how to do decimal numbers multiplication:

  2.25             ⇒ 2 decimal place

     1.8   x        ⇒  1 decimal place

 1800

235    +

4.050              ⇒ 3 decimal place  

to multiply decimal numbers, it is the same process as multiply the whole numbers, except the decimal place position. In the calculation above:

the first factor has 2 decimal place

the second factor has 1 decimal place

so the result will have 3 decimal place (2+1)

Back to the question, after we find out the blanket's area in meters, let's convert it to centimeters

so

The blanket's area is 40,500 cm²
