How long is a rectangular strip of land with a width of 5/4 km and an area of 3/4 square km ?
I don't understand
3/4 / 5/4 = 3/5
the answer L is 3/5
is it correct
You have to do 3/4 divided by 5/4. you do that by flipping 5/4 to its reciprical, 4/5. then, you multiply 3 X 4 = 12 and 4 X 5 = 20. your answer is 12/20. then you reduce it and come up with 3/5
Yes you are correct.

To find the length of the rectangular strip of land, we can use the formula for the area of a rectangle: Area = Length × Width.
Given that the width is 5/4 km and the area is 3/4 square km, we can substitute these values into the formula:
3/4 = Length × 5/4
To find the length, we can rearrange the equation and solve for Length:
Length = (3/4) ÷ (5/4)
To divide fractions, we can multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction:
Length = (3/4) × (4/5)
Multiplying the numerators and the denominators separately:
Length = (3 × 4) / (4 × 5) = 12/20
Simplifying the fraction by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 4:
Length = (12 ÷ 4) / (20 ÷ 4) = 3/5
Therefore, the length of the rectangular strip of land is 3/5 km.
EWWWW UR WRONG THE ANSWER IS 9
A=LW
3/4=L5/4
Times each side by 4/5
3/4 times 4/5 =?
therefore, L= ?
