Question

An art class is planning to paint a rectangular mural with an area of 60 square feet. It has to be at least 4 feet high but no more than 6 feet high. The length and width have to be whole numbers. List all possible lengths for the murals.

Answer 1

Hello!

There are three possible lengths.

We need to keep in mind that the total area cant exceed
`60 ft^(2)`, so, knowing that, we just need to find numbers that can be multiplied giving as result 60.

First combination:

`4ft(height)X15ft(width)=60 ft^(2)`

Second combination:

`5ft(height)X12ft(width)=60 ft^(2)`

Third combination:

`6ft(height)X10ft(width)=60 ft^(2)`

Have a nice day!
