Question 611436
The width of a rectangle is 3 inches and its area is 2 square feet. What is the length of this rectangle?
Please help.


1 square foot = 144 square inches


2 square feet = 288 (144 * 2) square inches


Now, since area = 288 square inches, and width = 3 inches, then length = {{{288/3}}}, or {{{highlight_green(96)}}} inches.
