The door to the clubhouse has an area of 1792² centimeters. The length of the door is 56 centimeters. To solve the problem we need to know how to find area.

A door is in a shape of a rectangle. To calculate area of a rectangle you need to do --

L x w = area

L (56) x n = 1792

1792
÷ 56 = n

n = 32

Check your work

L x w = area

(56) x (32) = 1792

We are correct.

The width of the door is 32 centimeters.
