Sure! Let's determine the area of the rectangle step-by-step:
1. Identify the given values:
- Length of the rectangle = 4 inches
- Width of the rectangle = 3 inches
2. Recall the formula for the area of a rectangle:
[tex]\[
\text{Area} = \text{Length} \times \text{Width}
\][/tex]
3. Substitute the given values into the formula:
[tex]\[
\text{Area} = 4 \text{ inches} \times 3 \text{ inches}
\][/tex]
4. Perform the multiplication:
[tex]\[
\text{Area} = 12 \text{ square inches}
\][/tex]
Therefore, the area of the rectangle is 12 square inches.
