What is Rectangle?

In Euclidean plane geometry, a rectangle is a quadrilateral with four right angles.

What is Area?

Area is the quantity that expresses the extent of a region on the plane or on a curved surface.

Given,

Length of the rectangle = [tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex] inches

Width of the rectangle =[tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] inches

Area of the rectangle = Length × Width

Area = [tex](\frac{2}{5} ).(\frac{1}{3} )=\frac{2}{15}[/tex] square inches

Hence, the area of the rectangle is [tex]\frac{2}{15}[/tex] square inches
