A rectangle has an area of 0.24 of a square. What are some possibility for the length and width of the rectangle? Tell why

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the area is 0.24 square meter

The area of a rectangle is given by

square units

Let x be the length and y be the width.

Since the area is 0.24 square meter, we have the equation:

, with x and y measures in meters

If we want to know some possibilities of x and y, we can assume a value for one of them, and then calculate the other one using the equation.

Now choosing some values for "x", we have:

Put x = 1

∴ y = 0.24

Now put x = 0.5 we get

∴ y = 0.48

Put  x = 0.25

∴ y = 0.96

Put x = 2

∴ y = 0.12

answer: 4
