Question

4.) Determine the missing side of a rectangle with an area of 480 cm² and a length of 32 cm. Please show your work.​

Answer 1

w = 15 cm

Explanation:

We want to find the width, as the area of a rectangle is length (l) * width (w).

Since we know the area and the length, we have 480 = 32w

Isolating w by dividing both sides by 32 gives us w = 15 cm
