Answer 1

Answer:

The length f the table is 1.51 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Width table = 1.06 meters.

It is given that the table is 0.45 meter longer than it is wide. This can be written with the help of equation:

$\text{Length} = \text{Width} + 0.45$

Putting the given values in the question, we have,

$\text{Length} = 1.06 + 0.45 = 1.51\text{ meters}$

Hence, the length f the table is 1.51 meters.

Answer 2

L = W + 0.45......L = length and W = width
W = 1.06

L = 1.06 + 0.45
L = 1.51 meters <===
