Question: 1 / 400

What is the area of a rectangle with a width of 6 cm and length of 8 cm?

36 cm²

48 cm²

To find the area of a rectangle, you multiply its length by its width. The formula for calculating the area \(A\) of a rectangle is:

\[ A = \text{length} \times \text{width} \]

In this case, the length is 8 cm and the width is 6 cm. By substituting these values into the formula, we have:

\[ A = 8 \, \text{cm} \times 6 \, \text{cm} = 48 \, \text{cm}^2 \]

Therefore, the area of the rectangle is 48 square centimeters. This corresponds to the answer provided, confirming the calculation is correct.

Understanding the area in terms of square centimeters helps visualize how much space the rectangle occupies. In this case, the product of the length and the width, both measured in centimeters, results in square centimeters, which is the correct unit for area.
