1.96, if you multiply that by the length, (which is 2.5) then you will get the area of 4.9 hope this helps

Answer:

Width of rectangle is:

1.96 units

Explanation:

We know that area of rectangle is:

Area=Length×Width

The area of a rectangle is 4.9 square units.

The length is 2.5 units and the width is y units.

4.9=2.5×y

so, y=4.9/2.5

y=1.96

Hence, width of rectangle is:

1.96 units
