Question

UpStudy AI · Accepted Answer

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

$$
\text{Area} = \text{Length} \times \text{Width}
$$

Given:
- **Area** = 836 square feet
- **Length** = 38 feet

Plugging the known values into the formula:

$$
836 = 38 \times \text{Width}
$$

To solve for the width, divide both sides of the equation by 38:

$$
\text{Width} = \frac{836}{38}
$$

$$
\text{Width} = 22 \text{ feet}
$$

**Answer:** The width of the rectangle is 22 feet.
The width of the rectangle is 22 feet.
