Let’s solve each problem one by one.
We know that for a rectangle:
Area = Length × Width
So, if we’re given the area and one side (length or width), we can find the missing side by dividing:
→
Missing side = Area ÷ Given side
We’ll do this for each of the 9 problems.
---
Problem 1:
Area = 70 ft², Width = 7 ft → Find Length
Length = 70 ÷ 7 =
10 ft
---
Problem 2:
Area = 96 yd², Width = 8 yd → Find Length
Length = 96 ÷ 8 =
12 yd
---
Problem 3:
Area = 105 in², Length = 15 in → Find Width
Width = 105 ÷ 15 =
7 in
---
Problem 4:
Area = 65 in², Length = 13 in → Find Width
Width = 65 ÷ 13 =
5 in
---
Problem 5:
Area = 48 ft², Width = 4 ft → Find Length
Length = 48 ÷ 4 =
12 ft
---
Problem 6:
Area = 176 yd², Width = 11 yd → Find Length
Length = 176 ÷ 11 =
16 yd
---
Problem 7:
Area = 112 yd², Length = 16 yd → Find Width
Width = 112 ÷ 16 =
7 yd
---
Problem 8:
Area = 18 in², Length = 9 in → Find Width
Width = 18 ÷ 9 =
2 in
---
Problem 9:
Area = 33 ft², Width = 3 ft → Find Length
Length = 33 ÷ 3 =
11 ft
---
Final Answer:
1) 10 ft
2) 12 yd
3) 7 in
4) 5 in
5) 12 ft
6) 16 yd
7) 7 yd
8) 2 in
9) 11 ft
