Area method
5

Find the area of a rectangle with the following dimensions:

a
Length of 0.5 \text{ cm}, width of 0.8 \text{ cm}
b
Length of 0.2 \text{ m}, width of 0.07 \text{ m}
6

Consider a rectangle with side lengths of 4.67 and 9 units.

a

Complete the table by finding the area of each smaller rectangle as a decimal.

b

Hence, find 4.67 \times 9 as a decimal.
