Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
Area (A) = length × width
A = 7 [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] × 9 [tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex]
Change both mixed numbers to improper fractions
7 [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{15}{2}[/tex]
9 [tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{73}{8}[/tex]
Hence
[tex]\frac{15}{2}[/tex] × [tex]\frac{73}{8}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{15(73)}{2(8)}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{1095}{16}[/tex]
= 68 [tex]\frac{7}{16}[/tex]
