Question

the area of a rectangle is 45 5/16 cm ² . if one of the sides is 6 1/2cm long, find the other side​

Answer 1

Answer:

Height =2 17/104 cm

Step-by-step explanation :

Area=base*height

$45 \times \frac{5}{16} = 6 \times \frac{1}{2} \times height$

$\frac{225}{16} = \frac{13}{2} \times height$

$\frac{225}{16} \div \frac{13}{2} = height$

$\frac{225}{16} \times \frac{2}{13} = height$

$\frac{450}{208} = height$

$\frac{225}{104} = height$

$2 \times \frac{17}{104} = height$

$height = 2 \times \frac{17}{104}$

Hence height=2 17/104 cm
