1/48 square miles

˜”*°•.˜”*°• Explanation •°*”˜.•°*”˜

Since this question is asking us to find the area of the rectangle:

a = l(w)

[tex]\frac{1}{12}(\frac{3}{12}) = \frac{1}{48}[/tex]

Therefore, I can conclude that the area of the rectangle is 1/48 square miles.

(I think this might be wrong.)
