Question

what is the width of a rectangle with length 14 cm and area 161cm squared 2

Answer 1

Length • Width = area. Length is 14. So set it up like an equation. W • 14 = 161. This simplifies to 14W= 161. Divide both sides by 14 to get the variable alone. This gets you 11.5. So the width is 11.5. Hope this helps
