Question

a rectangle has an area of 7/8 square units if the width is 7/16 unit what is the length of the rectangle in units?

Answer 1

`Length=2 units`

Explanation:

Given :

Area of the rectangle =
`(7)/(8)` square units

Width of the rectangle=
`(7)/(16)` units

Area of the rectangle= Length* Width

`(7)/(8) =Length*(7)/(16)`

Multiplying
`(16)/(7)` both the sides

`(7)/(8) *(16)/(7) =Length`

`Length=(16)/(8)`

`Length=2 units`

The length of the rectangle is 2 units
