Draw a rectangle give the length and the width to show that it has an area of 12cm make sure one side is longer than the other to show length and width

To find area, you multiply length * width. There are 4 sides on a number, so we need to have a equation like this. x * x * y * y = 12cm. If we do 4 * 4, we get 8. We could also use 2 * 2 = 4. 8 + 4 = 12. So, width = 8, and length = 4.

Hope this helps! ☺♥
