Area of a rectangle

Teaching Transcript

🎙️

What is the area of a 4 by 6 rectangle?

Think of area as the number of 1 by 1 tiles that would cover a shape. Here we have 6 rows of 4 tiles

Adding 6 rows of 4 is the same as multiplying 6 times 4, so our area is 24 square meters

This math skill teaches how to calculate the area of a rectangle by multiplying its length by its width. The area represents the number of square units needed to cover the surface of the rectangle.
