    A cubicle is 6 1⁄2 feet by 8 3⁄4 feet. What is the area of the cubicle?

    Area of a cube is length times width:
    A = 8 & 3/4 * 6 & 1/2

    We need to convert these to improper fractions.
    Multiply the improper fractions together:
    A = 35/4 * 13/2

    Using our fraction multiplier, we get:
    455/8 sq ft

    If you want to convert this to a mixed fraction, we type this in our calculator and get:
    56 & 7/8 sq ft
