Answer :

the area should be 2.40inches

also known as 2 2/5 inches

The area of a rectangle is length x width

the length is 6

the width is 2/5

Let's multiply these numbers together

[tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex] × 6 = [tex]\frac{12}{5}[/tex]

(All I did was multiply 6 by the numerator of 2)

The area of the rectangle is [tex]\frac{12}{5}[/tex] [tex]in^{2}[/tex]

or in decimal form, 2.4 [tex]in^{2}[/tex]
