Find the Area of a Rectangle in Java

Area of a rectangle is the product of its length and breadth. Therefore, to calculate the area of a rectangle

• Get the length of the rectangle form the user.
• Get the breadth of the rectangle form the user.
• Calculate their product.
• Print the product.

Example

Below is an example to find the area of a rectangle in Java using Scanner class.

import java.util.Scanner;
public class AreaOfRectangle {
   public static void main(String args[]){
      int length, breadth, area;
      Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
      System.out.println("Enter the length of the rectangle ::");
      length = sc.nextInt();
      System.out.println("Enter the breadth of the rectangle ::");
      breadth = sc.nextInt();
      area = length* breadth;
      System.out.println("Area of the rectangle is ::"+area);
   }
}

Output

Enter the length of the rectangle ::
56
Enter the breadth of the rectangle ::
48
Area of the rectangle is ::2688
