Since the area of a triangle is equal to 1/2 times the base times the height, we can use the formula:
A = 1/2 * b * 6
where A is the given area of the triangle and b is the length of the base in inches.
To find b, we can rearrange this equation and solve for b by multiplying both sides by 2 and then dividing by 6:
2A = b * 6
b = 2A/6
Simplifying further:
b = A/3
Therefore, the equation to find the length of the base in inches is:
b = A/3
A = 1/2 * b * 6
where A is the given area of the triangle and b is the length of the base in inches.
To find b, we can rearrange this equation and solve for b by multiplying both sides by 2 and then dividing by 6:
2A = b * 6
b = 2A/6
Simplifying further:
b = A/3
Therefore, the equation to find the length of the base in inches is:
b = A/3
