Answer 1

Answer:

Length, $L=\dfrac{7}{5}\ km$

Explanation:

Given that,

Width of rectangular strip is 5/6 km

Area of rectangular strip is 7/6 km²

We need to find the length of the rectangular strip. The area of a rectangular shaped object is given by :

A = L × B

Putting the values of A and B, we get :

$L=\dfrac{A}{B}$

So,

$L=\dfrac{\dfrac{7}{6}}{\dfrac{5}{6}}\\\\L=\dfrac{7}{6}\times \dfrac{6}{5}\\\\L=\dfrac{7}{5}\ km$

So, the length of the rectangular strip is $\dfrac{7}{5}\ km$.
