Answer 2

Answer:

80 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The area of the store is 8800 square feet.

           Width of the store is 110 feet.

To find: depth ( from front to back) is the store.

Solution: Area of the store is 8800 square feet.

               We know that the floor of the store is rectangular in shape, and area of the rectangular field is length$\times$ width.

It is given that width of the store is 110 feet.

$l\times w=8800$

$l\times110=8800$

$l=\frac{8800}{110}$

$l=80$

Hence, the store is 80 feet deep.
