Answer:

Explanation:

I believe you meant that the area is 60 m².

Since A = L·W,

here your 60 m² = L·W = L·(20 m)

We must solve this for L. To do so, divide 60 m² by 20 m:

60 m²

---------- = 3 m This is the length, if the width is 20 m.

20 m

Answer: The length is 3.

Explanation:

A = w*l

60 = 20 * l

60/20 = 3

60 = 20 * 3

l = 3
