A rectangle has a length of 2 miles and a width of 6 miles. What is the area in square kilometers? Round your answer to theHow many liters of paint are in a 5-gallon bucket? Round your answer to the nearest liter.



Answer :

The area of a rectangle is the total space it would cover in a two-dimensional plane. Thus, the required answers are:

i. The area of the rectangle is 31.1 [tex]km^{2}[/tex].

ii. There are 18.9 liters of paint in the 5-gallon bucket.

Plane figures are bounded by straight sides. Thus examples are triangle, rectangle, square, trapezium, rhombus, etc.

A rectangle is a plane shape that has four sides. In this figure, two opposite sides have equal lengths.

The area of a rectangle = length x width

So in the given question, we have:

1) 1 mile = 1.60934 Kilometres

Thus;

2 miles = 3.21869 km

6 miles = 9.65606 km

Area of the given rectangle = 3.21869 x 9.65606

                                              = 31.0799

The area of the rectangle is 31.1 [tex]km^{2}[/tex].

2) Given a 5-gallon bucket, then:

1 gallon = 3.78541 liters

So that;

5 gallons = 18.9271 liters

               = 18.9 liters

Thus there are 18.9 liters of paint in the 5-gallon bucket.
