How many time does a 4 by 5 rectangle go into a 40 by 120 rectangle?
240 times. We need to find the area of each and divide them into each other. Rectangle 1: 4x5=20 Rectangle 2: 40x120=4800 The area of cube 2 divided my the area of cube 1 is the answer. 4800/20=240.
Is there a relationship between the area and the perimeter of a rectangle?
No. Different rectangles, all with the same area, may have a different perimeter. Example:* A rectangle of 4 x 1 has an area of 4 square units, and a perimeter of 2(4+1) = 10. * A rectangle of 2 x 2 has an area of 4 square units, and a perimeter of 2(2+2) = 8. * A rectangle of 8 x 1/2 has an area of 4 square units, and a perimeter of 2(8 + 1/2) = 17. In fact, for any given area, you can make the perimeter arbitrarily large. On the other hand, you get the lowest perimeter if your rectangle is a square.
Why is possible for two shapes to have the same area but different perimeter?
It is possible for to shapes to have the same area but different perimeters because, for example, one shape could be a 2 by 4 rectangle and another shape be a 1 by 8 rectangle. Both shapes have an area of 8 (2*4=8 and 1*8=8) but the 2 by 4 has a perimeter of 12 (2+2+4+4=12) but the 1 by 8 rectangle has an area of 18 (1+1+8+8=18).
What is the perimiter of 76 acres?
There is no simple relationship between area and perimeter. For the same area, you can have different perimeters, depending on whether the enclosed area is a square, a 2:1 rectangle, a 3:1 rectangle, etc., a circle, a 2:1 ellipse, a regular pentagon, etc.
Find Area of Rectangle Having perimeter 2 and length 2?
If a rectangle had a length of 2 and a perimeter of 2, its width would need to be negative 1. However, width, by definition is non-negative and so a width of -1 is impossible. As a result, such a rectangle cannot exist. And since it cannot exist, it cannot have an area.
