Patty made a banner that has an area of 196 square inches,. The length and width of the banner are whole numbers. The length is 4 times greater than the width. What are the dimensions of the banner?

Respuesta :

Lets say the width is W and the length is L,

So its W *  L = 196

but we also know W*4 = L

which means we can substitute L for W * 4 so our equation will be

W*W*4 = 196

W*W = 49

W= 7
