Question

Tanya has a rectangular plot of land in her backyard where she is building a dog house. The area of the rectangular plot of land is 9/16 of a square yard, and the width is 5/8 of a yard. What is the length, in yards, of the rectangular plot of land?

Answer 1

If A=LxW, then L=A/W. So, L=(9/16)/(5/8)=(9/10). L=9/10yd.
