Well, first off, the formula to calculate the area of a rectangle is: Length times width so, we can just multiply both of our fractions together.
First off, to make this simpler, we can convert the mixed number fractions into improper fractions and then we can simply straight multiply the numerators and denominators together because multiplying fractions is not as tricky and confusing as adding or subtracting fractions.
Area of a Rectangle = Length * Width
A = (1 and 7/9) * (3/4)
A = (16/9) * (3/4)
A = 16/9 * 3/4
A = (16 * 3) / (9 * 4)
A = 48/36
A = 8/6
A = 1 and 2/6
