Question

Area of a rectangle is 312 sq units.


If its width is 6 units, find out its length.

• A. 52 units
• B. 48 units
• C. 56 units
• D. 64 units

Answer 1

The correct option is A 52 units

We know,
Area of a rectangle = Length $\times$ Width

Area = 312 sq units
Width = 6 units

∴ Length = 312 $÷$ 6 units


Let us divide the numbers using place value.

So, at first, we write the expanded form of the dividend 312.


Let's divide each of these places with the divisor 6.

After division by place value, we add all the partial quotients to get the final answer.


Here, the final quotient is 52.


$\therefore$ Length = 52 units
