area of a rectangle is equal to length * width.

the wall forms a rectangle where the area is equal to 75 square meters and the height is equal to 5 meters.

since you are looking to find the width of the wall, then the height is the same as the length.

your formula of area = length * width becomes 75 = 5 * width.

solve for width to get width = 75/5 = 15 meters.

the width of your wall is 15 meters and the height of your wall is 5 meters and the area of your wall is 5 * 15 = 75 meters.
