Question

An office has an area of 120 meters squared and it is 12 meters wide. Write an equation to represent the area.

Answer 1

12x = 120

If you need to find the length, it is 10 meters.



I will use x to represent the length of the room, since the letter l shows up like an I or a 1.

The simple equation is 12x = 120, since length times width equals area.

If you want to solve for the length, then divide both sides of the equation by 12. This leaves you with x = 10. So, the length of the room is 10 meters.
