Question

3. If the length of a rectangle is 24 cm and the area is 196.4 cm², what is the widthof the rectangle?

Answer 1

We know that the area of a rectangle is

`A=w* l`

Where w is the width and l is the length.

Let's replace the given information.

`196.4=w*24`

Then, we solve for w.

`w=(196.4)/(24)\approx8.18`

Therefore, the width is 8.18 centimeters, approximately.
