Question

The area of a rectangular table top is 5 3/8 m².
If one of the sides measures 2 1/4m, find the length of the other side.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

here A-5 3/8=(51/8)m

and 1-2 1/4-(9/4)m

formula:A=Ixb

(51/8)=(9/4) b length of other side=(51/8)-(9/4)

=(51-18)/4 =33/4

=8.25m.

Answer 2

Answer :

• the length of the other side = 43/18 cm.

Given :

• Area of Rectangular table = 5 3/8 m²
• The breadth of table = 2 1/4 m²

To find :

• the length of the other side.​

Solution :

⇒ Let's find the length of the other side.​

$\sf \longrightarrow Area = length \times breadth$

$\sf \longrightarrow 5 \dfrac{3}{8} = length \times 2 \dfrac{1}{4}$

$\sf \longrightarrow \dfrac{5 \times 8 + 3}{8} = length \times \dfrac{4 \times 2 + 1}{4}$

$\sf \longrightarrow \dfrac{43}{8} = length \times \dfrac{9}{4}$

$\sf \longrightarrow Length = \dfrac{43}{8} \div \dfrac{9}{4}$

$\sf \longrightarrow Length = \dfrac{43 \times 4 }{8 \times 9 }$

$\sf \longrightarrow Length = \dfrac{172}{72}$

$\sf \longrightarrow Length = \dfrac{43}{18}$

$\sf \therefore Length = \dfrac{43}{18}$

• Therefore, the Length of the other side is 43/18 cm.
