Given:
Width of the canvas = 49 inches
The height of the canvas is 3 inches less than the width.
To find:
The area of the canvas.
Solution:
It is given that,
Width of the canvas = 49 inches
The height of the canvas is 3 inches less than the width
So, the height of the canvas is:
[tex]h=49-3[/tex]
[tex]h=46[/tex]
We know that the shape of the canvas is a rectangle and the area of the rectangle is:
[tex]A=length\times width[/tex]
The two dimensions of the canvas are 46 inches and 49 inches. So, the area of the canvas is:
[tex]A=46\times 49[/tex]
[tex]A=2254[/tex]
Therefore, the area of the canvas is 2254 square inches.
