Question

Reggie is surveying a plot of land in the shape of a rectangle. The area of the land is 73,000 square meters. If the width of the plot of land is 5,025 meters, how long is the plot of land? round your answer to the nearest hundredth of a unit.

Answer 1

You can start with the formula for area of a rectangle, then solve for the length.
area = length*width
73000 m² = length*(5025 m)
73000 m²/(5025 m) = length ≈ 14.53 m
