Calculating Areas of Rectangles

JT is on a mission to measure the area of different shapes on the playground. He focuses on the jungle gym, which consists of two rectangles. JT measures the smaller rectangle with a width of 7 meters and a length of 9 meters, and the larger rectangle with a width of 8 meters and a length of 10 meters. He calculates the area of the smaller rectangle as 63 square meters and the larger one as 80 square meters. By adding these areas, JT determines the total area of the jungle gym to be 143 square meters.
