The area of an 14-cm-wide rectangle is 322 cm2. What is its length?<br> The length is<br> cm.

Anika [276]

Answer:

The length of rectangle is 23 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>DIAGRAM</u> :

$\setlength{\unitlength}{1cm}\begin{picture}(0,0)\thicklines\multiput(0,0)(5,0){2}{\line(0,1){3}}\multiput(0,0)(0,3){2}{\line(1,0){5}}\put(0.03,0.02){\framebox(0.25,0.25)}\put(0.03,2.75){\framebox(0.25,0.25)}\put(4.74,2.75){\framebox(0.25,0.25)}\put(4.74,0.02){\framebox(0.25,0.25)}\multiput(2.1,-0.7)(0,4.2){2}{\sf\large{14\ cm}}\multiput(-1.4,1.4)(6.8,0){2}{\sf\large{14\ cm}}\put(-0.5,-0.4){\bf}\put(-0.5,3.2){\bf}\put(5.3,-0.4){\bf}\put(5.3,3.2){\bf}\end{picture}$

$\begin{gathered}\end{gathered}$

<u>SOLUTION</u> :

Here's the required formula to find the length of rectangle :

${\longrightarrow{\pmb{\sf{A_{(Rectangle)} = l \times b}}}}$

A = Area
l = length
b = breadth

Substituting all the given values in the formula to find the length of rectangle :

$\begin{gathered}\qquad{\longrightarrow{\sf{A_{(Rectangle)} = l \times b}}}\\\\\qquad{\longrightarrow{\sf{322 = l \times 14}}}\\\\\qquad{\longrightarrow{\sf{322 = 14l}}}\\\\\qquad{\longrightarrow{\sf{l = \dfrac{322}{14}}}}\\\\\qquad{\longrightarrow{\sf{l = \cancel{\dfrac{322}{14}}}}}\\\\\qquad{\longrightarrow{\sf{l = 23 \: cm}}}\\\\\qquad{\star{\underline{\boxed{\sf{ \pink{l = 23 \: cm}}}}}}\end{gathered}$

Hence, the length of rectangle is 23 cm.
