Answer: 5/2 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
You can find the area of a rectangle using this equation:
A = bh, where b is the base (length) and h is the height.
So, your rectangle is:
[tex]\frac{35}{4} = \frac{7}{2}h[/tex]
You can then divide both sides by 7/2 to find h.
[tex]\frac{\frac{35}{4}}{\frac{7}{2}}[/tex]
To divide, you can flip the fraction in the denominator to multiply:
[tex]\frac{35}{4}*\frac{2}{7}[/tex]
So, your width is 70/28. You can divide both sides by 14 to get 5/2.
