Carson and Emily make a poster for school. The poster is in shape of a rectangle, The length of the poster measures 7 units , and the area of the poster is 42 units. what is the width of the poster

Answer 1

To find the width of the poster, we can use the formula for the area of a rectangle:

Area = length x width

Given that the length is 7 units and the area is 42 units, we can plug these values into the formula:

42 = 7 x width

Now, we can solve for the width:

width = 42 / 7
width = 6 units

Therefore, the width of the poster is 6 units.
