The area of a rectangular pool is 360m. If the length of the pool is 85m, what is its width? Width of the pool: ___ m

Question

Find the width of the pool.

Answer 1

for a rectangle, we have area = length*width

we know area = 360m^2 and length=85m

so 360m^2 = 85m * width

width = 360m^2 / 85m = (360/85)m = (72/17)m
