Question

The area of a rectangle is calculated with the formula A=Iw. If the area of a rectangle is 52.5 m² and the width is 5 m, what is the length? Explain the

solution to the real-world problem.
A. The length is 262.5 m²
B. The length is 262.5 m.
C. The length is 10.5 m.
D. L= 10.5

Answer 1

C

Explanation:

the area (A) is calculated as

A = lw ( l is the length and w the width )

here A = 52.5 and w = 5 , then

l × 5 = 52.5 ( divide both sides by 5 )

l = 10.5

that is the length is 10.5 m
