The Solution:

Given that the area of the rectangle below si 134 square millimeters.

We are asked to find the width of the given rectangle.

Using the formula for the area of a rectangle, we have

$\begin{gathered} \text{A = L}* W \\ \text{Where} \\ A=\text{area}=134\text{ }mm^2 \\ L=2\operatorname{mm} \\ W=\text{ ?} \end{gathered}$

Substituting these values in the formula above, we get

Dividing both sides by 2, we get

$\begin{gathered} (134)/(2)=(2* W)/(2) \\ \\ 67=W \\ W=67\text{ millimeters} \end{gathered}$

Therefore, the correct answer is 67 millimeters.
