3. Understanding Area
Area = Length × Width
The area of a rectangle is the measure of the space inside it. To calculate it, you simply multiply its length by its width. This gives you a result in "square units" (like square meters, square feet, etc.), which represents how many 1x1 unit squares can fit inside the shape.
Try it Manually:
If a room is 12 feet long and 10 feet wide, its area is 12 × 10 = 120 square feet.
