 $\begin{array}{r} l = & \frac{1}{3} \\ w = & \frac{\frac{3}{1}}{3} \end{array}$

Step 1

The area of a rectangle is equal to the length times the width.

$(l e n g t h) \cdot (w i d t h)$

Step 2

Substitute the values of the length $l = \frac{1}{3}$ and width $w = \frac{\frac{3}{1}}{3}$ into the formula for the area of a rectangle.

$\frac{1}{3} \cdot \frac{\frac{3}{1}}{3}$

Step 3

Divide $3$ by $1$ .

$\frac{1}{3} \cdot \frac{3}{3}$

Step 4
