The dimensions of a rectangle are 15 3/8 cm by 4 2/3
What is the area of the rectangle?
A) 20 1/24 cm 2
B) 33 13/4 cm 2
C) 60 1/4 cm 2
D) 71 3/4 cm 2

D. 71 3/4 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a rectangle = L x B

L is length

B is the breadth/width

From the question,

L =15 3/8

B=4 2/3

Therefore,

Area = 15 3/8 x 4 2/3

Change the mixed fractions to improper fractions

= 123/8 x 14/3

=1722/24

Divide the numerator and denominator by 6

= 287/4

= 71 3/4 cm^2
