You cannot.
First of all, an area cannot be 6 inches since that is a measure of distance, not of an area. So a rectangle with an area of 36 inches is impossible.
In any case, assuming the area is 36 SQUARE inches and that the length of the rectangle is at least as great as the width, all that you can say is that the width is at most 6 inches.
Suppose the length is L inches where L >= 6 inches.
and let W = 36/L inches.
Then Area = L*W = L*36/L = 36 sq inches as required. But W is indeterminate.
The length of a rectangle is twice its width. If the perimeter of the rectangle is , find its area.
For a rectangle, area equals length times width. To find the length given the width and area, divide the area by the width.
the length of a rectangle is 5 more then the width. Find the perimeter and the area of the rectangle
For a rectangle or square, Area = Length * Width So Length = Area / Width.
Area of rectangle divided by its length = width of rectangle
Multiply the length and width to find the area of both a rectangle and square.
length times width
the area of a rectangle = length x widthwe can rearrange this to give uslength of a rectangle = area/ width
the length of a rectangle is 8 more than the width. the area os 345 centimeters. find the length and width of the rectangle
To find the width of a rectangle when you know the length, you can use the formula for the area of the rectangle, which is Area = Length × Width. If you have the area, you can rearrange the formula to solve for width: Width = Area ÷ Length. If you don't have the area, you will need additional information, such as the perimeter or the relationship between length and width, to determine the width.
In order to find the area of a rectangle, multiply the length by the width of the rectangle. For example: If the length of a rectangle is 5cm and the width of a rectangle is 2cm, then the area of the rectangle would be 5cm X 2cm = 10cm².
Divide the area by the length will give you the width
