Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

It will be close.

Formula

Area = L * W

Givens

Area = 225 square inches

W = 13 3/4 = 13.75

Solution

  • Area = L * W
  • 225 = L * 13.75                    Divide both sides by 13.75
  • 225/13.75 = L*13.75/13.75  
  • 16.36 = L

Answer

No it won't fit in the given space. The mirror is too large.
