what do you mean?
OpenStudy (kevin):
I will leave this into 3mar since he comes first :)
OpenStudy (3mar):
area=length*width
length=area÷width
and you have \[width=4\frac{ 1 }{ 4 }=\frac{ 17 }{ 4 }\]
and the area\[area=41\frac{ 2 }{ 3 }=\frac{ 125 }{ 3 }\]
Divide area by width
\[length=\frac{ area }{ width }=\frac{ \frac{ 125 }{ 3 } }{ \frac{ 17 }{ 4 } }=\frac{ 500 }{ 51 }=9\frac{ 41 }{ 51 }\]
inch
