Question

The longest runaway at an airport has the shape of rectangle and an area of 2,057,000 square feet. This runaway is 170 feet wide how long is the run away ? The length of the runaway is ?

Answer 1

Answer:

The runway is 12100 ft long

Explanation:

The area of a rectangle is given as:

A = wl

Where w is the width and l is the length

Given that A = 2, 057,000 sq. ft

w = 170 ft

Using these, we can easily find l

2,057,000 = 170l

l = 2,057,000/170

= 12100
