x

Answer 1

Area of rectangle = L × B

Where

L is length and B is breadth

A = x × 5

45 = x × 5

x =45 /5

x = 9/1

x = 9 (units)

Answer 2

Understanding the Question :

• It is given that the area of the rectangle is 45 sq units. And its length is x and breadth is 5 units.

Solution :

We know that,

• Length × Breadth = Area.

Therefore,

⇢ x × 5 = 45

⇢ x = 45/9

⇢ x = 9

Therefore,

The solution is x = 9 units.
