Question

The length and breadth of the three rectangles are as given below:

1. 9 m and 6 m
2. 17 m and 3 m
3. 4 m and 14 m

Which one has the largest area and which one has the smallest?

Answer 1

1. Area of rectangle = l × b

   = 9 × 6

   = 54 m²

2. Area of rectangle = l × b
   

   = 17 × 3

   = 51 m²

3. Area of rectangle = l × b
   = 4 × 14
   = 56 m²
   Area of rectangle 56 m² 

c. is the largest area and area of rectangle 51 m² i.e b. is the smallest area.
