Question

If the area of a rectangle is 144 sq. in. and the length of one side is 18in. what is the length of the other side?

Answer 1

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:  The other side has a length of 8

Discussion:

Area of a rectangle = l * w ( length times width). In our case

Area = 144 = l * w = 18 * w =>

18 w = 144  =>

w = 144/18 = 8

Thank you,
