Answer:
length is 20 and the width is 5
Step-by-step explanation:
so Area is 100
Area = width * length
legth = 4 * width
This means:
Area = width * 4 width => Area = 5 * width
We know that area is 100 so:
100 = 5 * width
that means width = 20, but wait didn't I say that the length is 20? Yes, remember we said length = 4 * width at the beginning, so <u>length = 20</u>.
Now we can easily calculate width as width is 4 times smaller than length, so:
<u>width = 20/4 => 5</u>
We can also test if this is correct by simply using the formula to calculate rectangle. So 5 * 20 = 100, correct!
