The area of a rectangular ice skating rank is 900 square yards if the length of the ring is 100 yards what is the width of the rink

Respuesta :

The width of rectangular rink is 9 yards

Solution:

Given that,

Area of rectangular ice skating rink = 900 square yards

Length of rectangular rink = 100 yards

To find: width of rink

The area of rectangle is given as:

[tex]\text{ Area of rectangle } = length \times width[/tex]

Substituting the given values in above formula,

[tex]900 = 100 \times width\\\\width = \frac{900}{100}\\\\width = 9[/tex]

Thus the width of the rink is 9 yards
