The area doesn't tell you the dimensions.
The length and width of your rectangle could be . . .
1 x 16
1.25 x 12.8
1.6 x 10
2 x 8
2.4 x 6 2/3
2.5 x 6.4
3.2 x 5
3 1/3 x 4.8
4 x 4
and an infinite number of other possibilities.
Area of a rectangle = length * width = 72 feet-squared
Width of rectangle: 180/15 = 12 cm
11.5 cm
4.5 inches.
Width = 161/14 = 11.5 cm
Area of a rectangle = length * width = 72 feet-squared
trick question
Just multiply the width and the length for a rectangle or a square. The answer is 884cm squared.
Width of rectangle: 180/15 = 12 cm
17.6 squared inches
4.5 inches.
11.5 cm
Lengthxwidth=area You multiply the length times the width and then you put the answer in squared units
Width = 161/14 = 11.5 cm
width = 375/25 = 15 inches
That is a square, but the formula is the same. Area = Length * Width Area = 25 * 25 = 625 squared units ===============
