Express your answer in simplest form

Answer 1

\[\large \sf A=l \times w\] \[\large \sf A=(4+\frac{1}{3})(5+\frac{1}{5})\] Just distribute aka foil method.

sorry, simple mistake :)

Answer 11

multiply width times length

Answer 12

For this kind of multiplication I prefer the foil method. \[\large \sf (4+\frac{1}{3})(5+\frac{1}{5})=(4\times 5)+(4 \times \frac{1}{5})+(\frac{1}{3} \times 5)+(\frac{1}{3} \times \frac{1}{5})\]

Answer 13

that could work too!

Answer 14

something more simple that you could do is \[4*5 . and . 1/3*1/5 add . them . together :)\]

Answer 15

That wouldn't work.
