The width of a rectangle is equal to "m" cm, but its length is five times greater than the width. Find the area of the rectangle.

m is the variable..not meters

PLEASE HELP ASAP!

Respuesta :

Answer: [tex]5m^2[/tex] square centimeters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The width of a rectangle is equal to "m" cm, but its length is five times greater than the width.

i.e. Expression for Width = m  and Length = 5 x m = 5m

We know that the area of a rectangle is given by :-

[tex]\text{Area=length x width}[/tex]

Put Width = m  and Length = 5m , we get

Area of the rectangle [tex]= (5m) \times(m)= 5m^2[/tex] square centimeters.

Hence, the area of the rectangle = [tex]5m^2[/tex] square centimeters.

The area of the rectangle is  5m² cm²

A rectangle is an object that has four sides. It is a quadrilateral. The two opposite sides of a rectangle are equal in length. Sum of the angles in a rectangle is equal to 360 degrees. Each angle is a right angle.

The area of a rectangle = length x width

  • width = m cm
  • length = 5 x m = 5m cm

Area = 5m x m = 5m² cm²
