Question

The length of the rectangular stock room is 4 meters more than its width . Find the length and width when its area is 12m²

Answer 1

let the width be x

and length be x+4

area of rectangle = l*b

12=x(x+4)

now factors of 12 are:-1,12

2,6

Now we don't need to find any more because

6=2+4

Hence,

length=6cm

width=2cm
