In order to find the area of a rectangle, it is necessary to multiply the length of one side of it by the length of its other side. Therefore, in order to find the length of one of its sides, it is necessary to divide the area of the rectangle by the length of its other side. Let’s calculate what the second side of a given rectangle is equal to, if it is known that its area is 14.5 cm ^ 2, and the length of the known side is 2.5 cm.
