This is easiest if you convert the dimensions to improper fractions:

2½ x 1½

5 .. 3
-- x --
2 .. 2

Multiply numerators across, and denominators across to get:
15
----
4

Make it back into an improper fraction:
3 3/4

So you need an object that is 3 3/4 sq. inches. An easy way to do this would be to measure an object that is 3 3/4 inches wide and 1 inch long.
