Question

As the marketing designer for Burger King, you are given a 4 in by 6 in logo and have been told to create an advertisement with side lengths six times larger. What is the area of your advertisement (in square feet)? [12 inches = 1 ft]
A. 6 ft2
B. 36 ft2
C. 72 ft2
D. 3 ft2

Answer 1

first find out the lengths of the advertisement is. since it's 6 times larger it would be (4x6) inches by (6x6) inches

Answer 2

Six times larger means:

(4*6) and (6*6)

So, the Area will be:

\[Area = Length \times Breadth\]

Can you go further now??

Answer 3

don't forget to turn the inches into feet before finding the area

Answer 4

so do i distribute?

Answer 5

Length has become = (4*6) = 24 inches

Breadth has become = (6*6) = 36 inches..
These both are in inches, so firstly convert them into Feet by putting 12 inch = 1 ft...

Can you do it or not??

Answer 6

is it 5ft
^2

Answer 7

Dude you don't have to add you have to multiply the feets you are getting for length and breadth...

Answer 8

Firstly tell, Length in feet = ????

Answer 9

im lost i dont get what your saying

Answer 10

What is the Length you are getting??

Answer 11

is the answer 6

Answer 12

if you turn your inches into feet then 24in becomes 2ft and 36in becomes 3ft. so the square footage would be 2^2 by 3^2 which equals 4x9

Answer 13

Yes the answer is 6 feet squared..

Answer 14

ok thanx for the help!!

Answer 15

wait or is it 36??

Answer 16

How you think it is 36??

Answer 17

if you are doing square feet then it would be 36

Answer 18

See, Area = Length*Breadth

You have length and breadth just multiply them to get the answer..

Answer 19

its 6 feet squared, sorry about that

Answer 20

@triciaandchad_2009 do you know how square feet came???

Answer 21

if you do that then you are not doing it in square footage you are doing it just in feet in order to do square footage then you must do the ^of the area

Answer 22

Area = Length(feet)*Breadth(feet) = Length* Breadth (sq. feet)

My dear friend Area is always having the units of square..

If you multiply feet with feet you will automatically get square feet...

Answer 23

@Tblack have faith on yourself and go with 6..

Answer 24

aha ok
