Question

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

Answer 1

Answer:

The length of rectangle is 23 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

DIAGRAM :

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

SOLUTION :

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.

Answer 2

Answer:

• Area=322cm²
• Breadth=14cm
• Length=?

We know that,

$\implies\displaystyle{Area_{(rectangle)}} = length(l) \times breadth(b)$

$\implies\displaystyle{3 {22}^{} } = l \times 14$

$\implies\displaystyle{ \frac{322}{14} = l }$

$\implies \displaystyle{23=l}$

Thus,the value of length=23 cm.
