Toby has two rectangles of cloth. The first is 4 inches wide and 5 inches tall. The second is 3 inches wide and 6 inches tall. How many more square inches is the area of the first compared to the second?
The first has an area of 20 square inches because (4 x 5) = <<4*5=20>>20.
The second has an area of 18 square inches because (3 x 6) = <<(3*6)=18>>18.
The difference in area is 20-18=<<20-18=2>>2 square inches.
