The ratio of the width of a rectangle to it's length is 3:4. The length of the rectangle is 36 cm. Find the rectangles width.

27 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

So the ratio you have is

width (x) : length (36) = 3:4

Divide 36 (length) by the ratio length. 36:4=9

They are multiples of nine, so multiply the width by 9 to get the 3.

3*9=27

You have 27:36

If you want to check it, divide both by 9 and you get 3:4
