Calculate the areas of rectangles by multiplying the given measurements of width and height
Home / 3rd grade / Measurements / Calculate / Calculate area: multiply measurements
To calculate the area of a rectangle, you simply multiply its width by its height. In this topic, the measurements are given in centimeters (cm). Here's how to do it:
Let's say you have a rectangle with a width of 10 cm and a height of 5 cm.
To calculate the area of the rectangle, multiply its width by its height. This will give you the area in square centimeters (cm²).
In our example, the width is 10 cm, and the height is 5 cm. So, to find the area:
Area = Width × Height
Area = 10 cm × 5 cm
Area = 50 cm²
So, the area of a rectangle with a width of 10 cm and a height of 5 cm is 50 square centimeters (50 cm²).
This topic asks you to calculate the area of rectangles given their width and height. Your answers should be in square centimeters (cm²).
