How to use units when identifying the area of a rectangle that is filled with unit squares?
Area is the amount of flat space contained within a given shape. Area can be found by filling up the shape with unit squares and counting how many you need to entirely fill the shape.
Example:
Emma draws a rectangle using centimeter squares to measure the area of her mousepad. What is the area?
