    Area of a rectangle is

    A = l*w

    l - length

    w-width

    substituting the values given to you

    864 = 24 * w

    solving for width

    dividing 24 to both sides

    864/24 = 24/24 * w

    24/24=1

    864/24=w

    i dont carry a calculator around, but thats how you solve the problem
