The length of a rectangle is 4 times its width. The rectangle’s width is 8 m. What is the area of the rectangle?
Width = 8m
Length = 4 x 8 = 32m
Area = width x length
= 8 x 32
= 256m²
Answer:
The area of the rectangle is 256 m².
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that,
Width of a rectangle, b = 8 m
The length of a rectangle is 4 times its width, l = 4 b
Length, \(l=8\times 4=32\ m\)
The area of the rectangle is given by :
\(A=l\times b\)
\(A=32\ m\times 8\ m\)
\(A=256\ m^2\)
So, the area of the rectangle is \(256\ m^2\). Hence, this is the required solution.
