Answer:
The width is 8 units
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a variation problem we are to work with.
Length is inversely proportional to width, let length be l and width be w
modeling the statement mathematically, we have lw = k where k is the proportionality constant
Now let’s get k from l = 12 and w = 6
k = 12 * 6 = 72
Now for the second rectangle also;
lw = k given l = 9
9w = 72
w = 72/9
w = 8

To solve this problem, just use multiplication.

You can somewhat think of this situation as a sort of tree. You start with 7 large branches representing the pants, then for every one of those you have 3 medium-sized branches to represent the pairs of pants. Each one of those has 5 sticks for the ties, which in turn each have 6 leaves to represent the jackets and therefore a complete outfit. The solution is found by getting the total number of leaves on the tree.
Check the picture below.
surely you know how much that is.
