Answer 2

We know that formula for area of rectangle is A=a*b where a and b are sides of rectangle.
So we can substitute our data to this formula
198=18*b (there is no difference which side we take as a or b)
Now we can just solve simply equation
198=18*b /:18 both sides
198:18=b
b=11 - its the result
