Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Width of frame= 2 inches
Width of painting=18 inches
Length of painting= 14 inches
Formula used:
Area of rectangle=
Calculation:
To find the area of frame, 2inches width has to be added to all 4 of the sides of the painting.
So, new dimensions of frame are
Width=18+2+2 (2 inches to left and right sides)
Length=14+2+2 (2 inches to up and down sides)
So, area of the frame=
Substituting values,
Area=
Solving,
Area=
So,
Area=396 in2
Hence, D is the correct answer.
