A rectangular field is to be fenced in completely. The width is given as 22 yd and the total area is 990 yd2. Determine the length of the field?
a. 31 yd
b. 45 yd
c. 968 yd
d. 473 yd
b. The area of a rectangle is width times length. Using the formula 990 yd2 = (l ) x (22), solve for length by dividing both sides by 22; l = 45 yards.
