Calculating Rectangle Area with Unit Squares

The video tutorial explains how to calculate the area of rectangles and squares using multiplication. It begins by introducing the concept of area in square meters and demonstrates the calculation for a rectangle by counting square meters. The tutorial then explains the multiplication method for calculating area, showing that multiplying the length by the width gives the area in square meters. This method is applied to different rectangles and verified with a square, reinforcing the concept that area can be calculated by multiplying dimensions.
