The area of a rectangle mirror is 11 11/16 Square feet. The width of the mirror is 2 3/4 feet. If there is a 5 foot tall space on the wall to hang the mirror, will it fit?

Answer 2

We need to find the height of the mirror to solve this problem. We know the area and width, so using the formula
`A=l*w`, we have
`l=(A)/(w)`. Then:

`l=(11(11)/(16))/(2(3)/(4))=(187)/(16)*(4)/(11)=(17)/(4)`

Since
`(17)/(4)` is less than 5, the mirror will fit.
