Question

A rectangle playground has an area of 4704 square meters. If the width of the rectangle is 48 meters. What's the length.

Answer 1

the length is 98 meters

Explanation:

to find the area of a rectangle we use the equation wl = a, you basically multiply the width by the length. If we only have the measurement of one side, but we have the area, then we can do this in reverse, by dividing the area by the known side. So we just need to divide 4704 by 48

4704 / 48 = 98

length is 98
