You are choosing a new cell phone. The screen on your current phone is 10.8 cm high and 6.1 cm wide. The screen on the new phone is 12.4 cm high by 6.9 cm wide. How much larger is the area of the new screened in the area of the old screen?

19.68 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of Current Phone

First, find the area of the current phone. We can assume the screen is rectangular. The area of a rectangle can be found using:

a=l*w

We know the length is 10.8, and the width is 6.1, so we can substitute them in

a=10.8*6.1

a=65.88

Current Phone: 65.88 cm^2

Area of New Phone

Find the area of the new phone.

a=l*w

We know the length is 12.4, and the width is 6.9, so we can substitute them in

a=12.4*6.9

a=85.56

New Phone: 85.56 cm^2

Difference

We want to find how much larger the new phone screen is. To do this, find the difference between the new phone area, and the current phone area.

new phone - current phone

85.56-65.88

19.68

The new phone screen is 19.68 cm^2 larger than the current phone screen
