What is the area, in square centimeters, of a rectangle with a length of 34  

The correct answer is $986$. The area, $A$, of a rectangle is given by $A=\mathcal{l}w$, where $\mathcal{l}$ is the length of the rectangle and $w$ is its width. It’s given that the length of the rectangle is $34$ centimeters (cm) and the width is $29$ cm. Substituting $34$ for $\mathcal{l}$ and $29$ for $w$ in the equation $A=\mathcal{l}w$ yields $A=\left(34\right)\left(29\right)$, or $A=986$. Therefore, the area, in square centimeters, of this rectangle is $986$.
