I wanted to share this cool photo from N.W.'s math notes for Area:
I can just hear L and W shouting "Multiply us!"
Interested in extra credit? I took this photo at the game last night and thought, hmm... this is perfect for an area question! Calculate (please show your work) the dimensions of an NFL football field. The overall length of an NFL field is 360 ft, and the width is 160 ft (we will use feet since the measurement using yards includes a decimal). Turn it in on Monday with your HW for an extra point. Have a splendiferous weekend!
