mariah bought a rectangular piece of land that was 3 miles long and 2 miles wide.She plans to divide into 2 sections of equal area. if she farms one of the sections how many square miles could be farmed?
3 miles
Sesha ran 84 miles in 4 weeks .she ran 7days each week .if she ran the same number of miles each day , how many miles did she run each day
To find out how many square miles can be farmed in one section, we first need to find the total area of the rectangular piece of land.
The total area of a rectangle can be found by multiplying its length by its width. In this case, the length of the land is 3 miles and the width is 2 miles.
Area = Length x Width
Area = 3 miles x 2 miles
Area = 6 square miles
Since Mariah plans to divide the land into two sections of equal area, we can divide the total area by 2 to find the area of each section.
Area of each section = Total area ÷ Number of sections
Area of each section = 6 square miles ÷ 2
Area of each section = 3 square miles
Therefore, Mariah can farm 3 square miles in one section.
