Question

What is the length of a rectangle with width 14 in. and area 105 in.squared​?

Answer 1

Since, area of rectangle = 105 square inches.

Area of rectangle with length 'l' and width 'w' is given by the formula = $l \times w$

It is given that the width of the rectangle is 14 inches.

We have  to determine the length of the rectangle.

Let 'x' be the length of the given rectangle.

So, area of rectangle = $x \times 14$

$x \times 14 = 105$

So, x = 7.5 inches

Therefore, the length of the rectangle is 7.5 inches.

Answer 2

We know that the width of the rectangle is 14 inches

And the area of the rectangle is 105 inch square

We also know that Area of Rectangle = length × width

⇒ 105 = length × 14

⇒ length = 105 ÷ 14

⇒ length = 7.5 inches
