Question

. The area of a rectangle is 2/5 of a inch. If the length is 2/3 of a inch, what is the width

Answer 1

the width of the rectangle is
`(3)/(5)` inches

Explanation:

The computation of the width is as followS:

As we know that

Area of rectangle = Length × width

Let us assume the width be x

So

`(2)/(5) = (2)/(3) * x \\\\(2)/(5) = (2x)/(3) \\\\10x = 6\\\\x = (6)/(10) \\\\= (3)/(5)`

hence, the width of the rectangle is
`(3)/(5)` inches
