Answer:
Length = 6.49 cm
Explanation:
The formula for area of a rectangle is
A = lw, where
- A is the area in units squared,
- l is the length,
- and w is the width
Since we're already given the area and width and want to find the length, we can first rewrite the area formula in terms of l:
A/w = l
Now, we can plug in 25.311 for A and 3.9 for w to solve for l, the length:
25.311 / 3.9 = l
6.49 cm = l
We can check that 6.49 is the correct length by plugging everything into the regular area formula and checking that we get 25.311:
25.311 = 6.49 * 3.9
25.311 = 25.311
