Answer:
equation is: width = area / length
width = 62.5 yd
Explanation:
For the first rectangle:
We have:
length = 75 yd and width = 60 yd
Therefore:
area = length * width
area = 75 * 60
area = 4500 yd²
For the second rectangle:
We have:
area = area of first rectangle = 4500 yd²
length = 72 yd
area = length * width
width = area / length ............> The required equation
width = 4500 / 72
width = 62.5 yd
Hope this helps :)
To add/subtract fractions you need to have a common denominator...
(2/2)(4n/15)+(5/5)(n/6)
8n/30+5n/30
(8n+5n)/30
13n/30
