Question

The area of a rectangle is 0.8 square units. The length is 3.2 units and the width is x units.

Answer 1

Answer:

Option 1 - x=0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The area of a rectangle is 0.8 square units. The length is 3.2 units and the width is x units.

To find : What is the value of x?

Solution :

The area of the rectangle is given by,

$A=L\times W$

The length of the rectangle is L=3.2 units

The width of the rectangle is W=x units

The area of the rectangle is A=0.8 square units

Substitute the value in the formula,

$0.8=3.2\times x$

$x=\frac{0.8}{3.2}$

$x=0.25$

Therefore, Option 1 is correct.

The value of x is 0.25.

Answer 2

Area= l*b
0.8=3.2*x
0.8/3.2=x
x=0.25 units
