The rectangle is 4 cm long and 6 cm wider. Calculate the area of the rectangle.

The solution of the problem:

1. Recall the formula by which you can determine the area of a rectangle:

S = a * b, where a and b are the sides of the rectangle.

2. We know the length (4 cm), find out its width:

4 + 6 = 10 cm.

3. Determine the area of the rectangle:

S = 10 * 4 = 40 cm2.

Answer: the area of the rectangle is 40 cm2.
