The area of a rectangle is defined by multiplying the length by width. Represented algebraicly, a=lw, where a is area, l is length, and w is width. Substituting values of 3.1 and 11.3 (it doesn't matter which is length or width), we get a=3.1%2A11.3, which equates to a=35.03. That means the area of the rectangle is 35.03 square feet.
