Question

. The area of a rectangle is 2/5 of a inch. If the length is 2/3 of a inch, what is the width

Answer 1

Answer:

the width of the rectangle is $\frac{3}{5}$ inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the width is as followS:

As we know that

Area of rectangle  = Length × width

Let us assume the width be x

So

$\frac{2}{5} = \frac{2}{3} \times x \\\\\frac{2}{5} = \frac{2x}{3} \\\\10x = 6\\\\x = \frac{6}{10} \\\\= \frac{3}{5}$

hence, the width of the rectangle is $\frac{3}{5}$ inches
