Nicks poster has an Area of 2 1/2 feet. If the width is 1 1/4 feet what is the length?

The usual poster is in the shape of a rectangle. The formula for the area of a rectangle is written below:

A = LW

where L and W are the length and width dimensions

From the relationship described,

A = 2.5 ft²

W = 11/4 ft

Substituting this to the area equation:

2.5 ft² = L (11/4 ft)

Solving for L,

L = 10/11 ft
