Question

The area of a rectangular field is 4526 m².

If the width of the field is 62 m, what is its length?

Answer 1

Answer: 73 meters

Explanation:

The simple formula to calculate the area of a regular rectangle is (Length x Width)

Given the area is 4526, and the width 62, we can use "y" to represent the unknown length.

So, '

62(y)=4526

Divide both sides by 62

1/2[62(y)]=4526/62

Y= 73 meters.

To check, 73x62= 4526, which follows the formula

Answer 2

73 m

Explanation:

The formula for the area of a rectangle is a = w(l). Using this, we can plug in the given values and solve for l, the length.

4526 = 62(l)

`(4526)/(62) =(62l)/(62)`

l = 73

hope this helps!
