find a length and width for a rectangle with an area of 56 squared foot

Question

Find a length and width for a rectangle with the given area 56ft²

Answer 1

Marlene,

 

There are infinite possibilities for this

 

length * width = 56

 

If length is 1 ft, width is 56 ft

if L = 2 ft, width = 28 ft

You can substitute any value for length(or width) and calculate the other side.

 

Maybe there is additional information provided in the question.
