Real-World Examples
Example 1: Apartment Size
An apartment is 10 meters long and 5 meters wide. What is its area in square meters?
Area = Length × Width = 10m × 5m = 50m²
Example 2: Park Size
A park is 20 meters long and 10 meters wide. What is its area in square meters?
Area = Length × Width = 20m × 10m = 200m²
Example 3: Garden Size
A garden is 15 meters long and 7 meters wide. What is its area in square meters?
Area = Length × Width = 15m × 7m = 105m²
