2.2.3 Area & Perimeter Using Base Ten Blocks

The formula for the area of a rectangle is A= l x w
For the AREA questions below, write your numerical answers followed by the words square units.

The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is P= l + l + w + w or P= 2 (l + w)
For the PERIMETER questions below, write your numerical answers followed by the words units.
