The area of a retangle is 60 square inches. If the length is 12, what is the width?
A = LW
60 = 12W
60/12 = W
5 = W
Thank u
You're welcome.
To find the width of a rectangle given its area and length, you can use the formula:
Area = Length × Width
In this case, the area is 60 square inches and the length is 12 inches. Let's substitute these values into the formula:
60 = 12 × Width
Now, we need to isolate the variable "Width" by dividing both sides of the equation by 12:
60 ÷ 12 = Width
Simplifying the left side:
5 = Width
Therefore, the width of the rectangle is 5 inches.
