Answer:
[tex]Area = \frac{3}{4} cm^2[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]Length =\frac{1}{2}\ cm[/tex]
[tex]Width = 1\frac{1}{2}\ cm[/tex]
Required
Determine the Area
Area is calculated as follows
[tex]Area = Length * Width[/tex]
Substitute values for Length and Width
[tex]Area = \frac{1}{2} * 1\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Convert mixed fraction
[tex]Area = \frac{1}{2} * \frac{3}{2}[/tex]
[tex]Area = \frac{3}{4}[/tex]
Hence, the area is
[tex]Area = \frac{3}{4} cm^2[/tex]
