Answer:
2 1/2 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
Amita's kitchen is rectangular with an area of 3 3 /4 square meters. The width of the kitchen is 1 1/ 2 meters. What is the length, in meters, of Amita's kitchen?
The formula for the area of a rectangle = Length × Width.
To find the length our formula becomes : Area/Width
In the question,
Area = 3 3/4 m²
Width = 1 1/2 m
Length of the rectangular kitchen
= 3 3/4 m² ÷ 1 1/2 m
= 15/4 m² ÷ 3/2 m
= 15/4 m² × 2/3 m
= 5/2 m
= 2 1/2 m
The length of the rectangular kitchen is 2 1/2 meters
