๐ฎ Try It
Drag the width and height handles and watch the expression and total area update. Move a partition handle, try vertical or horizontal splits, and turn on partial-product numbers, tiles or the grid.
๐ฏ Your Mission
Create a rectangle with a total area of 1.50. Then split it so the displayed partial products add back to the same total.
