Let's solve each of the rectangle area problems step by step. The
area of a rectangle is calculated using the formula:
$$
\text{Area} = \text{length} \times \text{width}
$$
Each small square in the grid represents
1 square unit, so we can count the number of squares or use multiplication based on the dimensions.

🔹 Solved Example:
- Rectangle has
3 rows and
3 columns.
- Area = $ 3 \times 3 = 9 $ square units
✔
---
🔹 Problem 1:
- This rectangle has
1 row and
6 columns.
- So, length = 6, width = 1
- Area = $ 6 \times 1 = 6 $ square units
✔ Answer: 6 square units
---
🔹 Problem 2:
- This rectangle has
3 rows and
5 columns.
- So, length = 5, width = 3
- Area = $ 5 \times 3 = 15 $ square units
✔ Answer: 15 square units
---
🔹 Problem 3:
- This rectangle has
6 rows and
2 columns.
- So, length = 2, width = 6
- Area = $ 2 \times 6 = 12 $ square units
✔ Answer: 12 square units
---
🔹 Problem 4:
- This rectangle has
6 rows and
7 columns.
- So, length = 7, width = 6
- Area = $ 7 \times 6 = 42 $ square units
✔ Answer: 42 square units
---
🔹 Problem 5:
- This rectangle has
4 rows and
6 columns.
- So, length = 6, width = 4
- Area = $ 6 \times 4 = 24 $ square units
✔ Answer: 24 square units
---
✔ Final Answers:
1.
6 square units
2.
15 square units
3.
12 square units
4.
42 square units
5.
24 square units
