Answer 1

9 inches

Explanation:

Area of the rectangular cardboard = Length * Width ... 1

Given the area of the cardboard = 36-square inches

If the length of the cardboard can be found by dividing its area by its width, then Length = Area/Width ... 2

Given the width to be 4 inches

Length = 36 in²/4 in

Length of the cardboard = 9 inches
