A famers field is 440 feet long and the lngth is 4 times the width of the field how wide is the field?

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

Let us say that length is 4x then the width is x. And it says the actual length is 440 so what would be the width.

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

So the length is 4 times the width. So the width times 4 should equal 440. In numbers and symbols that would be \(4 \times w =440\)

@janice1989 Do you know how to solve from there?

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

You just divide by 4 on both sides to get the answer @janice1989
