The equation for area of a rectangle is length times width:
A = l x w
Since the measurements of the rectangle's length and width are given here, we can multiply them to find the area of the rug:
A = (30ft) x (25 ft)
= 750 ft2
(Notice your units would now be ft2 since we found that value by multiply ft x ft)
