Answer:

12in

Explanation:

If a rectangle has an area of 96 in²

and 1 side is 8in, then this means we have to find the other side length.

The formula for a rectangle area is:


A=lw

We know the area and length so let's substitute:

96=8w

divide both sides by 8

12=w

The other side is 12in, hope this helps!
