[tex]\large\text{Area of rectangle: A = wl; whereas \boxed{\textsf a} is \underline{area}, \boxed{\textsf w} is \underline{width}, \& \boxed{\textsf{l}} is}\\\large\text{\underline{length}.}[/tex]
[tex]\large\text{a = wl}\\\\\large\text{wl = a}\\\\\large\text{w(8) = 72}\\\\\large\text{8w = 72}\\\\\large\textsf{DIVIDE 8 to BOTH SIDES}\\\\\rm{\dfrac{8w}{8} = \dfrac{72}{8}}\\\\\large\text{SIMPLIFY IT!}\\\\\rm{w = \dfrac{72}{8}}\\\\\rm{w = 9}\\\\\\\huge\text{Therefore, your answer should be: \boxed{\mathsf{width = \bf 9}}}\huge\checkmark[/tex]
