Question

What is the width of a rectangle with length 5.5 cm and area 220 cm^2

Answer 1

In the given question it is given that the length of the rectangle is 5.5 cm and the area of the rectangle is 220 cm^2.
Length of the rectangle = 5.5 cm
Area of the rectangle = 220 cm^2
Then we already know that
Area of a rectangle = Length * width
So Width of the rectangle = Area of the rectangle/ Length
                                           = 220/5.5
                                           = 2200/55
                                           = 40
So the width of the rectangle is 40 cm.Hope  that you have got the answer you were looking for.
