Altitude means height. Area of rectangle is Base*Height
Divide 24 by 50. Move the decimal two places to the right to get percentage.

1)
10 in x 12 in
= 120 square inches
2)
24/50
=48/100
=48%

why can't you do the first one? don't you know that area (in a rectangle) is the length times the width?. . so it's just 10 x 12 = 120
the second one is easy as well. .
since 50 goes evenly into 100, by multiplying it by 2, just multiply what john got by 2 as well, and you have the percentage. .
48
