Why do you multiply the length and the width when you find the area?
Lizzyy
It is easier to understand if you draw on graph paper. Each little square represents one unit of area. So if you have a square with 4 little squares in it, then the length is 2 and the width is 2. Multiplied together it makes 4. A similar idea happens when you don't have a shape on graph paper. Instead, you use the info you are told, even if you are given a picture that doesn't look that size.
