To find the length and width of the walking path, we need to find two numbers whose product is 1080 and then see if those numbers are within the range of reasonable dimensions for a walking path.
Factors of 1080 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, 10, 12, 15, 18, 20, 24, 27, 30, 36, 40, 45, 54, 60, 72, 90, 108, 135, 180, 216, 270 and 540.
The possible dimensions for a walking path could be:
• 12 feet by 80 feet
• 15 feet by 72 feet
• 20 feet by 54 feet
Therefore, the correct options are:
• 12 feet by 80 feet
• 15 feet by 72 feet
• 20 feet by 54 feet
A walking path has an area of 1,080 square feet. Which could be the length and width of the walking path? (Select all the apply.)
• 9 feet by 110 feet
• 12 feet by 80 feet
• 15 feet by 72 feet
• 16 feet by 65 feet
• 20 feet by 54 feet
