How To work out Area?
You times length by width
What is the difference between an area and perimeter?
area is................ length x width perimeter is .......... length x width x length x width * * * * * WRONG. Area is the amount of space occupied by a shape. In the case of a rectangle, it is length x width, as stated above. But that does not work for circles, ellipses, triangles, other quadrilaterals and polygons and many other shapes, all of which have areas. A perimeter is the sum of all the lengths bordering the shape. The perimeter of a rectangle is NOT length x width x length x width but their sum! But again, that does not work for most other shapes.
How may square foot for 6feetx6feet?
to work out the area, times the length by the width.6x6=36
How do you work out find out the area when the length is twice the with?
You just multipy the length (no matter what it is) by the width (no matter what that is). So... L x W = A Where L is Length, W is Width and A is Area. For your question about the area of a rectangle where the length is twice the width but no numbers are given then I guess a formula could be W x 2W = A. Or send me the exact question and I'll see if I can think of a better answer.
Why the formula Length times Width times height work for finding the volume?
X * X * X = X3 All three dimensions are covered by finding volume and this is a cubic function.
