This question has two parts. Ian draws a rectangle on a grid. Which is the correct equation to use to find the area of the rectangle? Tip: Find the area (length x width) of rectangle 1. Find the area (length x width) of rectangle 2. Add both areas together.

• (5 + 4) x 10 = (5 x 10) x ( 4 x 10)

• (5 + 4) x 10 = (5 x 10) + ( 4 x 10)

• (5 + 4) x 10 =(5 + 10) + ( 4 + 10)

• (5 + 4) x 10 = (5 + 10) x ( 4 + 10)
