Question

3.

The area of a rectangular face of a piece of wood is 6m². The length of the wood
is 4 m. What is its width?

Answer 1

1.5m

Explanation:

A=LxW

6=4xW

6=4W

6/4=W

1.5=W

Answer 2

Explanation:

We can use the formula for the area of a rectangle, which is:

Area = length x width

In this case, we know that the area of the rectangle is 6 m² and the length is 4 m. So we can substitute these values into the formula and solve for the width:

6 m² = 4 m x width

Dividing both sides by 4 m, we get:

width = 6 m² / 4 m

Simplifying, we get:

width = 1.5 m

Therefore, the width of the piece of wood is 1.5 m.
