The formula for the area of a rectangle is:
.
Area = Length times Width
.
or in shortened form:
.
A = L * W
.
So to find the area of the rectangle that is given in the problem, just substitute 32 for L and 16 for W to get:
.
A = 32 * 16
.
When you multiply the right side you find that the area A equals 512 square units.
.
That's the answer to this problem. Remember the formula A = L * W
.
Hope this helps.
