Question

A rectangle has an area of 90 square centimeters and a height of 12.5 centimeters. What is the length of the base?

Answer 1

Answer: l = 7.2

Explanation:

90/12.5 = 7.2

7.2 * 12.5 = 90

Answer 2

length of the rectangle is 7.2 centimeters.

Explanation:

Area of the rectangle has been given as 90 square centimeters.

Height of the rectangle = 12.5 centimeters

Now we have to calculate the length of the rectangle.

Since, Area of the rectangle = Length × height

90 = 12.5 × length

Length =
`(90)/(12.5)`

= 7.2 centimeters

Therefore, length of the rectangle is 7.2 centimeters.
