: Can someone help me with this:
: The length of a rectangle is four times the width. The area of the rectangle
: is 100 square inches. Find the length and width of the rectangle.
Let width = x; then length = 4x, right?
Formula for area is: area = length times width.
Finish it; if you can't, switch to cooking class :)
