The area of the rectangle is 10.83 cm². The length of the rectangle is 5.7 cm.

The area of the rectangle is 10.83 cm². The length of the rectangle is 5.7 cm. Find the ratio of the length of the given rectangle to its width.

Let’s find the width of the given rectangle.

Let us denote it by x.

According to the condition of the problem, the length of the given rectangle of the rectangle is 5.7 cm, and its area is 10.83 cm².

Since the area of ​​any rectangle is equal to the product of the length and width of this rectangle, we can write the following equation:

5.7 * y = 10.83.

We solve the resulting equation and find the width of this rectangle:

y = 10.83 / 5.7;

y = 1.9 cm.

Knowing the length and width of a given rectangle, we find their ratio:

5.7 / 1.9 = 57/19 = 3.

Answer: the ratio of the length of this rectangle to its width is 3.
