Answer:

  • Width = 14 cm

Explanation:

To find the width of the ink pad, we need to use division to find the answer.

We know that:

  • Area of ink pad = 98 cm²
  • Length of ink pad = 7 cm
  • Width = A/L

Solution:

  • Width = A/L
  • => Width = 98/7
  • => Width = 14 cm

Hence, the width of the ink pad is 14 cm.
