Question

A rectangular parking lot has an area of 7/10 km 2.The width is 1/3 km 2 .What is the length of the parking lot written as a improper fraction ,in kilometers

Answer 1

Answer:

$\dfrac{21}{10}\text{ km}$.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

Area of rectangular plot $=\dfrac{7}{10}\text{ km}^2$

Width of rectangular plot $=\dfrac{1}{3}\text{ km}$

We need to find the length of the parking lot.

We know that,

$\text{Area of rectangle}=length\times width$

$\dfrac{7}{10}=length\times \dfrac{1}{3}$

$\dfrac{7\times 3}{10}=length$

$length=\dfrac{21}{10}$

Therefore, length of the parking lot is $\dfrac{21}{10}\text{ km}$.
