GCSE Maths Practice: perimeter-and-area

Question 5 of 10

This question practices rectangle area calculation with real-world units.

‹ ›

\( \begin{array}{l}\text{What is the area of a rectangle that is } 9\,\text{m} \text{ long and } 2\,\text{m} \text{ wide?}\end{array} \)

Choose one option:

\( 11\,\text{m}^2 \) \( 18\,\text{m}^2 \) \( 22\,\text{m}^2 \) \( 20\,\text{m}^2 \)

Multiply sides carefully and include squared units.

Area of a rectangle = length × width. Check units carefully. For a rectangle 9 m × 2 m, area = 18 m². Understanding this concept applies to gardens, flooring, and many practical applications. Practice different lengths and widths, and convert units if necessary. Always ensure you multiply the correct dimensions and include squared units for area.
