Question

the area of the field is 6000 square yards. write and solve a formula to find the width of the field

Answer 1

L-lenght
W-width

A = L·W

A = 6000 yd
L = 60 yd

subtitute

60W = 6000 |divide both sides by 60

W = 100 (yd)

Answer 2

Answer: For a rectangular shape, the area is equal to the product of th length and the width. so A = L*W

If the area is 6000
`yd^(2)`

so if you want to know the width you need to solve the equation W = A/L for finding the value of W.

I think in the picture says that L = 60 yds

so W = 6000/60 = 100 yards.
