Answer:

1. L= A/W

2. 4m

Step-by-step explanation:

We can define this problem as a word problem relating to mensuration of flat shapes, a

rectangle

1. Let the length be L and the width be W

Given

Area A= 6m²

W= 1.5m

We know that the area of a rectangular shape is

Area = L x W

The expression for the length is

L= A/W

2. The solution for the length is

6=1.5L

L= 6/1.5= 4m

Answer:

Equation: L = A /W

Solution: 4 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to apply the next formula:

Area of a rectangle (A)= width (W) x Length (L)

If we isolate L:

L = A /W

Since:

Width (W) = 1.5 meters

Area = 6 square meters

Replacing with the values given:

L = A /W

L = 6 / 1.5 = 4 meters
