A cubicle is 6 1⁄2 feet by 8 3⁄4 feet. What is the area of the cubicle?

Area of a cube is length times width:
A = 8 & 3/4 * 6 & 1/2

We need to convert these to improper fractions.
Multiply the improper fractions together:
A = 35/4 * 13/2

Using our fraction multiplier, we get:
455/8 sq ft

If you want to convert this to a mixed fraction, we type this in our calculator and get:
56 & 7/8 sq ft
