A rectangular parking lot has an area of 2/3 of a square kilometer. the width is 1/2 of a kilometer. What is the length, in kilometers, of the parking lot?
is 2/3 the answer?
(1/2)(l) = 2/3
l = (2/3) ÷ (1/2)
if a parking lot is 2/3k and the wodth is 1/2k what ia the length of the lot
la mena in to dodo 1/2?
To find the length of the rectangular parking lot, we can use the formula for the area of a rectangle, which is length multiplied by width. Let's call the length L and the width W.
Given:
Area = 2/3 km^2
Width = 1/2 km
We know that Area = Length * Width. So, we can write the equation as follows:
2/3 km^2 = L * 1/2 km
To get the length L, we need to isolate it on one side of the equation. We can do this by multiplying both sides of the equation by 2/1 (or simply 2) to cancel out the 1/2 on the right side:
(2/3 km^2) * (2/1) = L * 1/2 km * 2
Simplifying this:
4/3 km^2 = L km
Therefore, the length of the parking lot is 4/3 kilometers.
