Question

1. find the area of the rectangle.

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the area formula for a rectangle

$A = l\times w$ (where $l$ is length and $w$ is width)

Step2: Substitute the given values

$l=\frac{2}{3}\text{ km}$, $w = \frac{1}{4}\text{ km}$. So $A=\frac{2}{3}\times\frac{1}{4}$

Step3: Multiply the fractions

$\frac{2}{3}\times\frac{1}{4}=\frac{2\times1}{3\times4}=\frac{2}{12}$

Step4: Simplify the fraction

$\frac{2}{12}=\frac{1}{6}$

Answer:

$\frac{1}{6}\text{ km}^2$
