Answer 2

Answer : The dimensions ​of table runner will be, 20 inch length and 4 inch width.

Step-by-step explanation :

Let the width of table runner be, x

and, the length of table runner will be, 5x

Given:

Area of table runner = $80inch^2$

As we know that:

Area of rectangle = Length × Width

$80inch^2=(5x)\times (x)$

$80inch^2=5x^2$

$x=4inch$

The width of table runner = x = 4 inch

The length of table runner = 5x = 5(4) inch = 20 inch

Therefore, the dimensions ​of table runner will be, 20 inch length and 4 inch width.
