The area of a rectangle is 37.5 square inches. the length of the rectangle is 15 inches. what is the width of the rectangle?

a.
2 inches

b.
2.5 inches

c.
22.5 inches

d.
562.5 inches

Here is how to find the answer for this problem.
We know that the formula for getting the area of the rectangle is A = Length x Width. Given that the area is 37.5 inches squared and the length is 15 inches, let us just plug in the values. Let w be width.
35.7 in^2 = 15 in x w
Next, we divide both sides by 15 and this is the result
w = 2.5 inches.
Therefore, the answer would be 2.5 inches.
Hope this answer helps. Thanks for posting your question.
