Well you could do 5 3/8 plus 3 1/4 and your denominator 4 can become a 8 so multiply 4x2 to get 8 and 2x1 to get 3 2/8 and add that to 5 3/8 to get the sum of 8 7/8

Answer:

the area of the bottom of the jewelry box is 17,46 inches²

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to get area of a rectangle is

A = L * W

A = 5 3/8 inches * 3 1/4 inches

A =  43/8* 13/4= 17,46 inches²
