Question

The area of a rectangle garden is 38 1/4 Square meters the width of the garden is 4 1/2 meters. Find the length of the garden

Answer 1

Area of rectangle it's the width multiply by the lenth.

A=W*L

A=38 1/4 m²
W=4 1/2 m²

So: 38 1/4 = 4 1/2 * L
Dividing both sides by 4 1/2: : 4 1/2 :4 1/2

`38\frac14\ :\ 4\frac12\ =\ L\\\\L=\frac{153}4\ :\ \frac{9}2\\\\L=\frac{153}4\ \cdot\ \frac2{9}\\\\L=(17)/(2)\cdot\ \frac1{1}\\\\L=8\frac12`

Answer: The length of the garden is 8 1/2 meters
