Shawna reduced the size of a rectangle to a height of 2 inches what is the new width of it if it was originally 24 inches wide and 12 inches tall

Sagot :

if the width was not effected then the width is still 24 inches

if the area stayed the same, then
find area

area=legnth times width
288=12 times 24

so the new height./legnth =2

288=2 times width
divide by 2
144=width'

the new width =144
